Waymaker helps clients accomplish their goals through fierce advocacy in and out of the courtroom.

“Waymaker lawyers have significant experience in litigation. Their lawyers understand the law, technology, and have significant experience in court.”
— Client quote in Chambers 2024

Formerly Baker Marquart, Waymaker represents clients across industries in dispute resolution forums around the world. We present argument in a clear, persuasive and elegant manner. We represent plaintiffs and defendants, often in high-stakes cases involving disruptive technology and novel legal issues.

As our track record demonstrates, we win cases. But we also understand the stakes in any dispute are not confined to one particular outcome. We learn client objectives and develop tailored strategies to passionately pursue and achieve those often longer-term goals.

Finding a firm that will learn your business, understand the contours of various outcomes and help set and achieve ambitious goals is critical to not only success in a particular case, but also to broader growth and progress. Facilitating client growth and progress are our objectives. And because we frequently accomplish them, we enjoy long-term relationships with our clients.
