Litigation

lamp Sometimes you have to take a matter to Court.

I am a skilled trial lawyer here to help you.

Litigation is not like what you see on television. Once a dispute rises to a level that a complaint needs to filed with the Court, there is a lot of work to do.

Call me earlier rather than later, so that time limitations are not missed.

There is the initial pleadings stage of a case, written discovery, oral
discovery, dispositive motions, all before a trial is had.

These factors must be analyzed throughout the process to determine
whether your interests are being met.

I have a proven track record for trying complex cases in both state and federal court.
