The firm"s practice is limited to litigation and, within the litigation spectrum, is further concentrated in domestic relations and business disputes (including contract and tort cases). Our firm is deliberately small because its goals are to provide a limited clientele with personalized professional attention, utilizing a two-lawyer team approach on most cases.
The firm"s practice is precisely tailored to the litigation experience of its attorneys. The firm maintains no client base except for its active litigation files.
The primary source of its clients is referrals from other attorneys and former clients.
