The members of our Litigation Department are tough and determined professionals who draw on their significant experience to successfully resolve our clients' disputes. We regularly appear in the federal and state courts in Connecticut. Because many of our clients have a national presence, we also frequently appear in other state and federal jurisdictions. In addition, we routinely represent our clients in private arbitration and mediation proceedings.
Our Litigators handle all phases of the litigation process and have extensive trial and appellate experience. Outside of the courtroom, we counsel our clients in risk awareness and avoidance and help them to identify, evaluate and prepare for potential disputes. Our goal is to further our clients' objectives by achieving cost-effective and lasting solutions.
We represent businesses, financial institutions and individuals in a broad range of civil litigation matters, including the following:
- Business Litigation, including organization disputes, breach of contract and business tort litigation.
- Complex Commercial Litigation, including bankruptcy proceedings, commercial foreclosures, lender liability defense and general banking litigation.
- Employment Litigation, including employment discrimination and wrongful discharge litigation.
- Real Estate Litigation, including property valuation litigation, condemnation proceedings and land use litigation.
- Intellectual/Property Litigation, including copyright and trademark litigation and disputes involving unfair competition, trade secrets and covenants not to compete.
- Environmental Litigation, including Superfund litigation and proceedings brought by federal and state agencies to enforce compliance with environmental laws and regulations.
- Insurance Defense, including professional liability defense.
- Negligence and Personal Injury Matters.
