LITIGATION, TRIAL AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Our litigation department combines extensive experience with innovative “out of the box” strategies to generate successful conclusions to lawsuits and other actions. Whether it’s a complex business dispute, arbitration or administrative proceeding, we have the background and skills to go head to head with the largest of law firms on a cost-effective, value-filled basis. Our firm also provides clients with extensive experience and knowledge of Southwest Florida’s “home town” state and federal courts and judiciary.

Our litigation partners are former partners or associates in national law firms, but we believe in smaller-team “hands-on” representation. There will never be time entries from six or more different billing professionals on your matter.

The Firm handles virtually all types of civil disputes, including:

• Business disputes
• Real estate and title disputes
• Construction litigation
• Trust and estate litigation
• Complex land use administrative hearings/litigation
• Condominium/club/homeowner litigation
• Product liability/personal injury/professional malpractice
• Intellectual property disputes
• Securities litigation

We pride ourselves on listening to our clients, and then devising a strategy to help achieve the client’s goal. Our clients have included Fortune 500 companies, large publicly and privately held companies, governmental agencies, CEOs, directors, high net worth individuals, and local businesses.
