Guardianship

Criminal Defense
Whether representing a fiduciary or private party, we focus on using our multi-disciplinary experience in litigation, criminal law, bankruptcy, and securities to investigate and, when necessary, litigate, in order to achieve the highest recovery possible for the victims of the fraud, or to help defend parties being accused. Our background in law enforcement enables us to work cooperatively with regulatory and criminal authorities to pursue all avenues of recovery, or to help defend or negotiate resolutions with authorities as appropriate. Our bankruptcy experience enables us to effectively navigate the bankruptcy process.
Fraud
Our Complex Business Fraud Litigation Group takes a proactive, prosecutorial, and strategic approach to a broad range of business and professional misconduct matters, focusing on investment fraud and Ponzi-type schemes that result in business insolvencies.
Theft
Restraining Order
Months later, during the course of discovery, two of plaintiff’s corporate clients transferred their health and benefits insurance business from plaintiff to our brokerage client. Plaintiff filed an emergency motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction. In its motion, plaintiff sought to enjoin our clients not only from soliciting, accepting, and servicing business from plaintiff’s current or prospective clients, but also from servicing the two clients that had already moved their business.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Clients benefit from our expertise in all manner of private and public financings, listings on national securities exchanges and trading platforms, and from our active guidance in day-to-day SEC and FINRA compliance, corporate governance, and Blue Sky compliance. Our clients operate in diverse market segments, such as conventional and green energy (oil & gas, coal scrubbing, biofuels, recycling), medical devices and therapy, electronics, software development, and high-tech industries (genetic agriculture, automation equipment, transportation, fuel efficiency, industrial glass). We represent companies incorporated in the U.S., Canada, and the United Kingdom. We have developed a significant and growing practice working with Chinese companies, representing publicly traded companies with regard to SEC compliance, as well as a range of Chinese companies in their acquisitions in the U.S. Our diverse securities practice also includes expertise in Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs), domestic and international reverse mergers, and private investment – public equity (PIPE) transactions.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Many of our global corporate clients involve us in structuring, negotiating, and closing M&A transactions. Transactions deploy the full structural spectrum of M&A, including...
Business Transactions
Courtney Birnbaum focuses her practice on general corporate, commercial and transactional matters. With over 20 years of experience representing a range of businesses at various stages of their lifecycle, she handles start-up, structuring, restructuring and governance matters, financing, and commercial transactions, as well as day to day legal and contract matters.
Limited Liability Companies
We have broad experience in the development of real property, working with clients on real estate tax abatement and exemption programs, transferable development rights, contracts with architects and contractors, financings, partnerships and limited liability companies.
Trade Secrets
We also provide experienced counsel in the areas of literary and television rights transactions, sponsorships, merchandizing, licensing, branding, trade secret protection, intellectual property portfolio management, exercise of privacy and publicity rights, advertising and endorsement issues, and news and entertainment content.
Intellectual Property
There are many challenges when pursuing business activities in the U.S. Foreign firms and individuals require a wide range of legal services, including subsidiary formation, commercial contracts, real estate leasing, tax structuring and advice, employment and benefits advice, governmental licensing, intellectual property protection, and dispute resolution. For transactions such as financings and business acquisitions, these clients need sophisticated legal advice with knowledge of current market practices. We have the breadth of experience and the practice areas to comprehensively serve foreign clients.

Employment Discrimination
We understand the intricacies of employment litigation, as we both defend employers and executives against claims and represent key employees in pursuing them. We defend employers and executives facing a range of claims, including harassment, equal pay, overtime and off-the-clock work, tip pooling, meal/rest periods, employee misclassification, employment discrimination, harassment claims, leave interference, benefits, as well as restrictive covenants, faithless servancy and breaches of contract.
Employment Contract
As part of its strategy to enter a new geographical market, our client, one of the world’s largest insurance brokers, hired a group of employees in that market from another of the world’s largest insurance brokers. One of the new hires became the President of our client’s affiliate in that market. Shortly thereafter, the former employer initiated an action in Michigan state court against our brokerage client and its affiliate’s President, whom we also represented. Plaintiff alleged that the new President misappropriated confidential information and was soliciting plaintiff’s clients and employees in breach of her employment agreement’s restrictive covenants, allegedly with her new employer’s encouragement and assistance.
Employment Litigation
Because of the firm’s close work with many financial institutions and brokerage firms, we often represent our clients in arbitrations and other alternative dispute proceedings to resolve employment disputes.
Sexual Harassment
We also represent executives and employees with strong cases of employment discrimination, sexual harassment, and retaliation. We handle such cases confidentially and behind the scenes, or publicly in court cases, as fits our clients’ objectives and is appropriate given the situation. We have achieved significant recoveries for our clients using both strategies, enabling them to pursue their career goals without compromising their integrity.

Real Estate Litigation
We bring our considerable experience in the real estate industry to advocate for the rights of property owners, landlords, and tenants, including in disputes involving leases, construction deficiencies, purchase agreements, and New York “good guy guaranties.” We are often called upon to act swiftly and aggressively to protect our client’s interests, such as securing Yellowstone injunctions to prevent the termination of a lease, obtaining attachments on real property to secure an eventual judgment, and prosecuting and defending other emergency applications relating to the preservation of interests in real property.
Real Estate Transactions
Mr. Berger is Co-Managing Partner of the Firm and leads the Firm’s corporate tax practice. He is involved in structuring many of the corporate transactions in which the Firm is involved, especially in the areas of mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, limited liability companies, partnerships and S corporations, executive compensation, private equity and venture capital investments, and fund formations. Mr. Berger also has extensive experience in the tax aspects of business start-ups, bankruptcy and debt restructurings, real estate transactions, cross-border transactions, federal and state audits, and appeals, ruling requests and collection matters, and the formation and operation of tax-exempt organizations.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Our clients face an ever-evolving business and technological environment. Our goal is to integrate with our clients’ team, enabling them to focus on financial metrics while we address the legal, regulatory and tax elements. We become an integral part of the engagement team, protecting our clients and advancing their objectives. To facilitate achieving our clients’ goals, our engagement team draws on our deep experience in tax, labor & employment, intellectual property, real estate, bankruptcy and other supporting practices. Our estate planning professionals provide crucial support for our clients as their wealth increases, frequently on a multi-generational basis. Advice from litigators is a crucial element of our capabilities, assuring the strength of the clients’ written agreements and addressing disputes at early stages with skill, discretion and level of aggressiveness tailored to the nature of the dispute.
Wills
We work closely with our seasoned Trusts & Estates department to serve clients involved in Surrogate’s Court proceedings and other probate and estate litigation. We represent administrators, trustees, and beneficiaries in a wide range of challenges to and defenses of wills and estates. Because of our close collaboration with our Trusts & Estates department, we are able to counsel clients effectively not only within such litigation but also with respect to overarching trusts and estate concerns that inevitably are intertwined with litigation concerns.
