The firm has a broad general litigation practice that involves representation of national, regional and local operations, as well as representation of such clients through insurance carriers. While our litigators are usually identified with the defense of civil litigation, they also represent those with claims to be asserted. Litigation lawyers handle cases in state and federal courts, ranging from complex toxic tort and industry-wide litigation of major significance to more routine cases that can be found in any jurisdiction. Their cases include industrial accidents, products liability, toxic tort litigation (including major asbestos litigation), premises liability litigation, personal injury and wrongful death cases, business, energy and commercial disputes, securities matters, and appellate work in both state and federal courts.

Our lawyers recognize that every case, complex or simple, can have a significant impact upon a client and should be aggressively pursued in an efficient and cost-effective manner. We coordinate our efforts closely with our clients to ensure that the progress of a case never takes precedence over the client's overall interests. The firm's attorneys are also experienced in various forms of alternative dispute resolution.
