Our Process

1. Investigation and Communication with the Client

As part of our initial investigation with client, we will seek to understand the client’s business needs and history leading to the need for representation. We strive to understand from the client’s perspective their goals and realistic expectations of the case as well as time line and cost.

2. Explore Pre-Suit Resolution

In most circumstances, where appropriate we will explore pre-suit resolution. In a business case, this will most often take the form of a formal demand for inspection of books and records as well as demand correspondence. This allows the parties to obtain their own attorneys, alert insurers and exchange information viewpoints to more efficiently come to a resolution in the case.

3. Litigation

We will generally file lawsuits on behalf of the clients where the parties are unable to reach resolution. When representing defendants we will analyze strategies for early resolution if possible. In litigation, we encourage our clients to remain open to reasonable settlement offers while ensuring that the value is fair given the damages and cost of litigation.

4. Resolution

Whether through settlement, mediation, or judgment our firm is committed to resolving cases favorably to our clients and maintaining the integrity of the legal profession and the Courts.

Evaluate & Improvement Client Processes

When representing businesses in transactions or disputes, we first focus in on the legal issue that brought them to our door. attempt to look beyond the singular issue that has arisen and work with the client to attempt to avoid similar issues in the future. To that end, our work with clients in business litigation, often feeds into working with them to revise processes and contracts which in the long run save legal fees and expenses. We look to form long term partnerships with our clients in an effort to improve their business and at the same time are open to feedback from the clients on our processes. We work closely with clients and typically have long-term client relationships that lends itself to more effective legal representation.
