David Boies is a lawyer and a chief partner of Boies, Schiller & Flexner[?]. He has been involved in a number of high-profile cases in the United States.

He helped defend IBM in an antitrust case, and years later famously took the other side by representing the Justice Department in the Microsoft antitrust case. Following the 2000 U.S. presidential election, he represented Vice President Al Gore in the ensuing legal battle and participated in Bush v. Gore, one of the few Supreme Court cases ever televised.

He is representing Enron executive Andrew Fastow, and has been retained by the SCO Group in their pursuit of infringement of their rights to the UNIX intellectual properties.
