We’re informed by unique experiences on both sides of the v. — from defending Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in a labor dispute to representing an international arms trafficker on appeal — we bring strategic depth to bear on all matters.

And across all matters, we operate at a 94.5% close rate — securing, defending, and recovering at-risk value.

We represent Fortune 500 companies and executives in high-stakes matters from advising on transactions to negotiating and litigating business disputes.


Pre-Suit Strategy Disputes

For presuit matters, we are engaged to assess exposure, identify leverage, and position conflict for early, resolution. For any engagement, this early investigative work is mission critical as it informs both the tenor of the matter as well as the prospect of success.

Common objectives in presuit matters include:

  • Assess legal and commercial exposure

  • Identify leverage points and procedural advantages

  • Structure negotiations to force early resolution

  • Disrupt or influence planned transactions, mergers, or terminations

  • Preserve equity, compensation, or control interests before positions harden


Commercial Litigation

We prosecute and defend sophisticated actions involving employment litigation, breach of fiduciary duty, and complex commercial litigation. breach of contract, business torts, equity and control disputes, fiduciary duty claims, and enforcement proceedings in state and federal courts. Our experience spans New York’s Commercial Division and the federal courts, with victories in litigation involving banking and usury law, landlord-tenant disputes, corporate fraud, whistleblower protections, bankruptcy-related litigation, and shareholder activism.


Corporate & Transactions

In the corporate and transactional space, we advise clients across the full lifecycle of their business, including the structuring of new product launches, partnership negotiations, and other strategic initiatives. We approach transactions with a litigation-informed lens, evaluating terms not only for commercial value and client alignment but also for downstream risk.  


Regulatory & Advisory

We counsel clients on regulatory exposure, compliance strategy, and responses to government inquiries, including subpoena review, response management, internal document assessments, and advising on compliance obligations across evolving regulatory frameworks. For established companies, these requests may be routine. For newer market entrants, the fear and unfamiliarity with compliance can be crippling. 


We provide ongoing general counsel support to businesses that need clear, practical legal guidance without the burden of a full in-house team advising on contracts, corporate governance, transactions, and regulatory compliance obligations.
