The firm’s attorneys have combined over 35 years of experience in handling civil litigation matters with an emphasis on business and commercial matters. The firm’s attorneys are admitted in all of the state and federal courts in the state of California and have also acted as counsel in various arbitration forums within and without the state. The firm is well equipped to handle business matters ranging from contractually based disputes to all varieties of business torts, insurance coverage, products liability, condemnation, employment disputes, construction as well as trust and estate cases. The firm’s attorneys have taken cases from inception through trial and when necessary on appeal in almost all types of business and contract disputes.
The firm’s mission on behalf of its clients is to resolve their matters in a fashion that both protects their important interests and is cost effective as well. To this end, the firm works with our clients to keep litigation costs down. Because the firm seeks to minimize our client’s costs we also keep our fees well below typical hourly rates in Southern California. The firm is committed to the principal that costs and attorneys fees can best be minimized where the client is an integral part of all of the material decisions that must be made during the course of any dispute resolution process.
The firm endeavors, in each case, to make sure the client understands not only the legal issues presented by the dispute but also the alternative processes that might be employed to resolve it, whether that is through traditional civil litigation, arbitration or a negotiated settlement. Traditional litigation is not always the most appropriate mechanism with which to resolve a dispute and it is for this reason that the firm’s lawyers have become skilled negotiators with substantial experience in private mediation.
