We have earned a reputation for professional, aggressive, honest, efficient and importantly, successful resolution of disputes. Our litigation attorneys have extensive trial court experience and have litigated major civil cases in state and federal courts. We also work closely with other experienced corporate and real estate attorneys in the firm to offer creative solutions without resorting to litigation. The expertise of the other practice groups at the firm enables us to provide our clients with an unsurpassed range of services and experience. We recommend an appropriate course of action only after careful consideration of the merits of the case as well as any important business or personal issues. These various elements combined with the skill and expertise of our attorneys allow our firm to consistently bring our clients’ business disputes to a favorable and cost-effective end.

Although we take great pride in the litigation expertise we provide for our clients, sometimes the best solution is to avoid the time and expense of litigation. In some cases, arbitration is the best choice; in others, mediation or other alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques present the best possibilities for success. In many matters, ADR may be a less expensive and faster alternative to traditional litigation in the courts. The right ADR process also permits a client to minimize potentially damaging publicity. In cases where the facts in question are technical and complex, a client’s interests may be better served by having a specially trained or specifically-experienced arbitrator decide the case. Avoiding litigation may also preserve valuable business relationships.
