Claire Avery Melehani

I’m a complex trial attorney at McLellan Law Group, LLP, a boutique law firm headquartered in Silicon Valley. At McLellan Law Group, LLP, I represent high net-worth individuals who are in the midst of contentious negotiations and litigation throughout California. I work diligently to earn the trust and confidence of my clients, many of them high-profile executives and entrepreneurs.

▪️ WHAT SETS ME APART:

To fight for my clients, I combine cutting-edge legal arguments, strategic investigations, sophisticated media relations, and boots-on-the-ground advocacy.

I also have a strong finance background, which I gained working as an investment banking analyst for a global investment bank before attending law school. This unique training provided me with the skills to competently present financial arguments in court - on topics ranging from asset valuations to calculating damages - and provide business-savvy legal advice.

▪️ MY APPROACH TO CLIENT COUNSELING:

I provide my clients with comprehensive service through every step of the legal process. I begin by establishing trust and openness by being accessible, attentive, and committed to every case.

Next, I tailor the case strategy to meet each client’s unique needs. I zealously pursue my clients’ long-term goals while protecting and asserting their rights in the short term.

▪️ MY GOALS:

My primary goal is to help my clients receive a fair resolution as efficiently as possible. I believe strong advocacy requires both reasoned negotiation and decisive litigation strategies; if no reasonable settlement agreement can be reached, I am prepared to aggressively protect my clients' rights.
