Over the course of three and half decades, I’ve helped hundreds of companies and individuals resolve business conflicts with contract counterparties, partners, investors, employees, employers, and regulators.
I know that business disputes are, at best, costly distractions for my clients. At worst, some disputes pose existential threats to the companies I serve. I strive to find creative solutions that will end disputes as quickly and efficiently as possible. Sometimes aggressive litigation, involving discovery, motion practice and trial, is unavoidable. But more often than not, a client’s most important objectives can be achieved earlier in the process, perhaps by identifying a flaw in the adversary’s position and exploiting it with an early motion, perhaps through a negotiation prompted by a compelling presentation of a client’s position.
Identifying and navigating the shortest path to an optimal outcome is not only what my clients want; it is also the greatest source of my professional satisfaction.
My clients have included fund managers, real estate developers, large retailers, satellite companies, private equity firms, a major music publisher, advertising and marketing companies, an agribusiness, an oil trading firm, banks and other lenders, manufacturers, among many other small and large companies and their owners and managers.
