Neil Lloyd concentrates his practice in litigation strategic consulting: legal ethics, error preservation, and appeals. Licensed in California and Illinois, he is one of few than 300 attorneys certified by the State Bar of California as an appellate specialist. He has taught legal ethics at Northwestern University's Pritzker School of Law since 2010 and at the Law School since 2023. During his 30 years as an attorney, he has litigated hundreds of appeals, including writing thousands of appellate briefs and presenting argument in more than a dozen appeals in state and federal appellate courts coast to coast. He has severed as error-preservation counsel in several multi-week jury and bench trials, including litigating issues of first impression. In his professional responsibility practice, he advises attorneys on their compliance with ethics obligations and defends them in disciplinary actions, motions to disqualify based on asserted conflicts of interest, and legal malpractice claims.
