(Main Office)

Our practice includes all aspects of commercial and business litigation, intellectual property litigation, personal injury litigation, and corporate counseling. With regard to our intellectual property litigation and corporate counseling services, while we have represented a number of Fortune 500 corporations, we focus on small to medium-size companies who benefit from broad corporate and intellectual property counseling. We also represent a number of solo investors and start-up companies from inception of their business plan through their first couple rounds of funding. In addition, we have significant experience litigating commercial and business disputes, including non-compete, partnership, fiduciary duty, and breach of contract disputes, many of which we have tried to a verdict, judgment, or arbitration award. Lastly, our attorneys have broad experience representing individuals in personal injury and insurance matters in a variety of areas, including products liability, unsafe premises, dog bites and animal attacks, automobile and trucking accidents, and workplace accidents.
