Litigation, Arbitration, Mediation and Negotiation

Before undertaking representation in a litigation matter, it is important to evaluate the costs and probability of success with the client. The firm recognizes the expense associated with litigation, (both to attorney and client) and recommends that course only when it makes good business sense. Our attorneys are all experienced in alternate dispute resolution techniques which may prove less costly than traditional litigation and they are skilled at negotiating favorable settlements which avoid litigation.

When litigation is appropriate, the firm has substantial experience in both Federal and state courts, having litigated complex, multi-party patent infringement, copyright infringement, trademark infringement, unfair competition, and other matters in both bench and jury trials.

In addition, the firm's attorneys have extensive experience serving as both neutral and party-appointed arbitrators, and as mediators in a variety of technically oriented disputes.

One particular focus is Internet domain name dispute resolution.
