Litigation and Appeals

The firm prides itself on its ability to represent clients in most areas of litigation. As a matter of practice, we encourage our clients to attempt to resolve all disputes without litigation where possible, since good faith negotiation at an early stage of a dispute may well save the client time, attorney's fees, and other expenses.

In advising clients in this way, we may suggest such devices as arbitration or informal mediation as alternative procedures for dispute resolution. Our primary objective is to save clients time and expense while still aggressively protecting their rights. However, when a controversy cannot be settled, the firm will actively and aggressively prosecute or defend the client's position in court or in arbitration.

We believe there is a time to take a stand and a time to compromise. Good litigators know the difference.
