Our Firm’s lawyers have broad experience in litigating lawsuits in the state and federal courts, as well as before administrative agencies and before private arbitration panels. While being willing and able to take a case to trial or hearing is an important part of achieving clients’ goals, we make appropriate use of mediation and other alternative dispute resolution devices when best suited to achieving those goals, particularly with a view towards minimizing costs and expenses for the client.

    Some of the areas in which our most experienced litigators, Susan Lewis and Dickson Phillips, have litigated cases in court, agency or arbitration are: commercial contracts; construction; real property condemnation; corporate management; copyright; divorce and equitable distribution; child custody; employment; fiduciary duties; insurance coverage or benefits; shareholder rights and duties; will contests and estate disputes; trust disputes; guardianship matters; trademark; trade secret; partnership; joint venture; securities trading; broker/dealer; and product liability.
