Areas of Practice

Constitutional, Administrative, & Government Law

 

We have several years of experience litigating constitutional and other challenges to government overreach at the local, state, and federal levels, including those involving civil liberties & human rights, free speech, public health, and property rights.

The Firm can assist you or your business at virtually all stages of the judicial or administrative process, as needed, or vigorously represent your interests in other matters concerning campaign finance & election law, regulated industries, defamation, privacy, Internet law, media-related consultation, and state/federal public records requests.

Finally, we offer services relating to private criminal defense & appeals, post-trial motions, and related petitions.

Business Law, Commercial Litigation & Employment Law

 

The Firm is also proud to be a one-stop shop for the legal needs of entrepreneurs, employees, and businesses seeking to ensure their rights are protected.

We litigate and consult upon a wide variety of commercial matters, including breaches of contract, corporate/shareholder issues, formations & dissolutions, trade secrets, confidentiality/non-competition agreements, real estate, employment litigation & related investigations, and landlord-tenant disputes.

We have the knowledge and resources necessary to handle your matter from inception through trial, and if advisable, to take a federal or state appeal.

Intellectual Property Protection & Litigation

 

Ingenuity and innovation are drivers of the American economy in several important respects. Without the ability to profit from the fruits of one’s mind (whether expressive works, inventions, or trademarks that provide information to consumers), all citizens would lose out on an individual’s contribution to society. Yet the law provides a balance in order to protect the public domain — and it is often unclear whose rights should prevail in an area of law that frequently changes at the legislative and administrative levels.

We are passionate about assisting authors, inventors, business owners, publishers, musicians, visual arts/design professionals, architects, and others who add to the creativity and culture of our great nation.

Family Law / Estate Planning & Litigation

 

Our Firm believes that there are few duties more noble or important than to assist clients & their families through their most trying times, in hopes of finding a better tomorrow.

We have extensive experience in this area, and can handle marital dissolutions, complex property distributions, custodial matters, parentage matters & adoptions, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements, spousal maintenance & child support, grandparents’ rights, modification petitions, guardianships, wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance health care directives, probate litigation, and other legal matters touching on the family.
