Our attorneys are guided by the principles on which our firm was founded – dedication to client priorities, high-caliber representation and consistent attention to details. Decades of trial experience have taught us a great respect for a thorough understanding of the client’s legal situation. Corporate clients may find our attorneys overseeing a test skid of a vehicle at a suburban airport, descending into a construction pit to inspect a frayed cable, or directing a test burn of a wallcover product to evaluate its toxicity. Simply, we combine our legal acumen and experience with a “hands-on” approach to contemplate cases in ways other attorneys do not, allowing us to devise creative and often novel strategies that consistently achieve our clients’ goals.
We aim at arriving at the most efficient and effective resolution to every dispute. We recognize that litigation can be a costly and time-consuming affair. Consequently, at the outset, we approach every engagement with our extensive practice of successfully conducting mediations to avoid arbitration/litigation. However, we also recognize that each client has a unique set of needs, and the overall well-being of the client is our driving agenda. When litigation is unavoidable or is in the best interest of the client, our impeccable trial and appellate experience is capable of litigating every legal matter in any forum and at any level, be it State or Federal Court.
We offer the experience and resources of a large firm, with the flexibility, agility and efficiency of a boutique practice. Our attorneys are experienced in handling large, complex matters for leading national corporations, as well as the everyday legal needs of local regional businesses and individuals. First and foremost, clients count on our legal expertise, high quality representation and our reputation for integrity and results. But as a “right-sized” firm, they also benefit from our ability to be flexible in meeting their fluctuating demands for resources and corresponding staffing.
