Gillian Kuhlmann

Gillian Kuhlmann represents companies and individuals in high-stakes business disputes in state and federal courts. She recently served on the trial team that obtained a complete victory for a multinational general contractor against an owner and developer in a 12-week jury trial involving claims for wrongful termination and breach of contract. Gillian was also the lead associate in a breach-of-contract and trade secrets case in which she obtained an injunction to protect her client, a national financial planning company. 

Gillian is experienced in constitutional litigation. She has represented individuals and organizations in state and federal court proceedings at the trial and appellate levels, challenging the constitutionality of election laws that disenfranchise voters and limit the ability of Democratic and progressive organizations to encourage participation in the electoral process. 

While at the UCI School of Law, Gillian worked as a research assistant with Dean Chemerinsky on academic publications and drafted briefs for various district courts, circuit courts, and the Supreme Court of the United States.
