Areas of Practice

Government Liability Defense

By its very nature, a claim for professional negligence is uniquely personal. The provider often is accused of having inflicted immense suffering, if not death, upon a patient and the patient’s family. Our legal team with over ten years experience is gainfully equipped to handle this complicated area of practice.

Labor and employment law is complex and subject to frequent, often dramatic, change. A myriad of laws and regulations — sometimes conflicting in terms and purpose — impose a heavy compliance burden on employers. There also is a plethora of state, federal, and administrative agency decisions that construe these laws, adding to the burden on employers. For these reasons, they can be very difficult to resolve. With over 50 years’ experience, our attorneys and staff are skilled in the complexity of employment litigation.

Commercial Litigation applies to virtually any dispute that arises within the context of business. Common examples include breach of contract cases, suits to collect debts, joint venture and partnership disputes, class action lawsuits, civil RICO claims, and allegations of breach of fiduciary duty.

Our attorneys have defended a wide variety of premises liability cases above and beyond the standard slip and fall. Our clients include school districts, cities, counties and various non-profit entities. We focus on an early analysis of each case to determine the most effective strategy for defense, whether it be by dispositive motion, settlement or trial.
