We thoroughly and meticulously draft contractual terms with the goal of leaving nothing to chance.

Many of our clients have complimented us on the thoroughness of our contract negotiation and drafting, as well as other aspects of our legal representation  In fact, some of our clients have told us that contracts we drafted prevented the escalation of disputes, because our agreements provided the solutions to controversies that arose in the course of operating their business.  We are delighted that the contracts we negotiate and draft often serve as a rule book for business conduct, and therefore may often solve disputes long before litigation is commenced, or even contemplated.

Commercial Leases

Commercial Litigation

When a commercial dispute cannot be resolved through settlement negotiations, or by mediation, the only remaining options may be litigation or arbitration. In those instances, our New York Business Lawyer aggressively represents our commercial clients, whether they are the plaintiff or the defendant. Our many years of successfully litigating various types of disputes in the courts of New York State, as well as in Alternate Dispute Resolution forums (mediation and arbitration) give us the experience and expertise to zealously and effectively represent our client’s interests, whether in litigation or arbitration, or in any settlement forum such as mediation or informal settlement negotiations with the opposing party’s attorneys.

The pre-trial discovery phase of litigation enables our firm to uncover evidence crucial to proving the validity of our client’s case or defense. We carefully and relentlessly utilize the New York rules of pre-trial discovery in order to obtain important evidence that our adversary would prefer we did not know.

As a highly experienced New York Business Lawyer and New York commercial litigation law firm, we are sensitive to the need to not only achieve a desirable result, but also to do so in a cost effective manner.

In our litigation practice, we extensively prepare our cases for trial. This often results in negotiations that lead to successful settlements without the need for a trial. As a New York Business Lawyer who is devoted to achieving our clients’ goals in a cost effective manner, we are mindful of the advantages of successfully resolving a litigated case before trial. Minimizing litigation expense, and reducing our client’s time away from their business, as well as avoiding the inconvenience of a trial are all advantages of negotiating a settlement.
