Business Disputes
We represent clients from a variety of industries, including the financial services, technology, manufacturing, real estate, health care, entertainment and construction sectors, in commercial and business disputes at the trial and appellate levels throughout the country.

We thrive on these challenges.
Business Transactions
Our corporate, real estate, tax and trusts & estates practitioners work together to provide sophisticated advice on matters of critical importance, including corporate governance and compliance, exempt organization tax issues, tax controversies, strategic planning, mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and other business transactions.
Limited Liability Companies
We have leveraged our private investment fund experience to develop a specialty in joint venture transactions. Many representations involve investors in partnerships and limited liability companies seeking to form joint ventures with developers and local real estate operators to develop land for commercial and residential uses, to refurbish and reposition existing properties or simply to hold the acquired real property for the long term.

Employment Litigation
Employment litigation demands a rare combination of technical legal skill, courtroom prowess and deft negotiation. Employers and employees alike seek our counsel for this very reason.
Non-compete Agreement
Non-compete agreements have long been a staple in the employment arena, despite their potentially anti-competitive effect. They are both common and highly controversial.

Real Estate Transactions
The challenges of financing a real estate transaction demand thoughtful and creative solutions. Locally and nationally, our real estate lawyers represent both borrowers and lenders in all levels of the capital stack. Because of our vast experience, we are able to offer clients the perspectives of the multiple participants in a transaction, enabling efficient and intelligent outcomes.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Our client list is extensive and includes real estate investment funds and investors, lenders, commercial landlords and tenants, joint ventures and partnerships, property owners, agents, brokers, developers, contractors, and cooperative and condominium plan sponsors and boards. We represent them in a wide range of disputes, including financing disputes, commercial landlord-tenant matters, cooperative shareholder and condominium association and unit owner actions, construction mechanics’ liens litigation, commercial mortgage foreclosure and nonpayment proceedings, brokerage disputes, bankruptcy and workout-related litigation, purchase-sale disputes, partition actions and many other proceedings.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Tensions, disagreements and conflicting objectives make thoughtful estate planning as complicated as any legal endeavor. Along with our decades of hard-earned experience, clients value our professionalism, discretion and sensitivity as the virtues that set us apart.
Wills
Trusts
The types of “clients” the family office will have (e.g., will any of the clients be IRAs, charitable trusts or private foundations; will any be non-U.S. persons)
Probate

Bankruptcy
We represent individual and institutional debtors, creditors and investors of every type in bankruptcy litigation, adversary proceedings and contested matters in chapter 11, chapter 7 and chapter 15 cases, such as avoidance actions, adequate protection disputes, confirmation battles and claim disputes.
Foreclosure
Clients rely on this experience in connection with real estate loan workouts, bankruptcy actions and the acquisition of distressed loans and real estate in foreclosure. We are careful to understand our clients’ ultimate disposition strategies, which can vary widely.
