Litigation
Our attorneys represent clients through all stages of the litigation process, with an emphasis on complex litigation and trials. We have an exceptional record of success in trials and includes among its members many nationally recognized trial lawyers.

At the same time, we recognize that courtroom trials can be expensive and place huge demands on the time, resources, and business of our clients. Therefore, we encourage dispute resolution when appropriate including mediation, arbitration, and traditional settlement negotiation.

From the onset of a lawsuit, we work to reduce costs by assembling an appropriately sized team to handle the matter in the most efficient, cost-effective manner possible with frequent communication to the client.
