A boutique trial firm representing individuals and businesses in commercial litigation, employment, and white-collar defense.
Four specialties. Decades of bench-tested experience in each.
From breach-of-contract disputes to multi-jurisdictional class actions, we've tried over 300 commercial cases to verdict. Our work spans NY State Supreme Court through the Second Circuit and federal courts nationwide.
We represent both companies and individuals in employment disputes — from executive separations and non-compete enforcement to discrimination and harassment claims.
Investigations, indictments, and internal reviews — handled with the discretion the work demands. Several of our partners are former federal prosecutors.
Sophisticated planning for high-net-worth families, including trust structures, charitable giving, and cross-border issues.
Twelve partners, eighteen associates, one shared standard.
