|
| Over the last thirty-five years we have developed expertise in a wide range of legal areas. Our attorneys continue to develop and pursue new areas through continuing legal education, in which we participate as both instructors and students, through bar and other professional activities and through independent research. | |
|
We represent established and start-up corporations, partnerships and individuals conducting varied commercial, industrial, technological, professional and entrepreneurial activities. In our representation, we provide counseling and services to form, reorganize or liquidate businesses, to develop and carry out competitive business plans, and to protect businesses from unnecessary legal risks and costs. |

|
| REAL ESTATE | |
| In real estate transactions and disputes, we have represented purchasers and sellers, brokers and agents, title insurers and escrow companies, developers and contractors, borrowers and lenders, landlords and tenants, homeowners and homeowners' associations. | |
|
|
| CIVIL LITIGATION | |
| In representing our individual and business clients in disputes with other parties, we first attempt to resolve conflicts through negotiation, mediation and arbitration. Where these approaches do not succeed, we consult with our clients to determine whether, in light of economic and emotional resources, litigation is a reasonable option. If it is, or our clients have already been sued, we actively prosecute or defend our clients' positions, as we have done in hundreds of matters before state and federal trial and appellate courts and government agencies. Our litigation attorneys have developed successful strategies and tactics designed to obtain all necessary factual information, to encourage reasonable settlement and, if necessary, to prevail at arbitration or trial. In addition, after trial, we represent parties on appeals and in the enforcement of settlements and judgments. | |

|
| ESTATE PLANNING, PROBATE AND TRUST LAW | |
| Through their years of practice in estate planning and probate and trust administration, our attorneys have acquired an appreciation of the uncertainties and fears that surround planning for and addressing the legal consequences of death. For this reason, our attorneys counsel individuals and families with concern not only for the legal issues but also for the practical and emotional issues. Our attorneys are careful to ascertain the objectives of the individuals and families and to explain the options available to achieve those objectives. | |
|
|
| DIVORCE AND FAMILY LAW | |
| Our family law attorneys, including a Certified Family Law Specialist, counsel and represent individuals in all aspects of family law, including prenuptial agreements, adoptions, paternity suits, domestic partnerships and marital separations and dissolutions. | |
