Full-Service Business Litigation Practice
Our attorneys aggressively assert and protect the rights of your business outside of court, through motion practice, in hearings and, if necessary, at trial.

Alternative Dispute Resolution
In addition to traditional litigation services, we represent business clients in a variety of arbitration forums, including FINRA, AAA, JAMS, and California’s NMBV, at mediation, and in confidential hearings before private judges.
Preventative Law Equals Cost Savings for You
Recognizing that prevention is often the best solution, our attorneys use business planning services and skilled negotiation to do our best to keep clients out of court. We work proactively with our clients to manage litigation costs by evaluating potential litigation risks and developing, early on, an overall case strategy and budget. But make no mistake, when litigation is unavoidable, our trial attorneys have the experience, tenacity, resources, and expertise to aggressively assert and protect the rights of your business.
