Practice Areas
Corporate
We have significant experience in corporate formation and governance and can help you navigate difficult challenges and achieve your growth targets. We know the legal pitfalls that impact family-owned businesses, partnerships, and limited liability companies, and how to avoid them. We specialize in helping entrepreneurs structure new businesses to achieve growth while limiting personal liability.
Litigation
Even the best business relationships can go south. When that happens, litigation may be the only solution. We have litigated business disputes across New York State, and beyond. Our goal is to use aggressive and targeted litigation to reach a positive settlement or final victory in court. We focus on breach of contract, theft of trade secrets, and tortious interference claims.
Estate Planning & Probate
Estate planning is something no one wants to do, but something everyone needs to do. We will protect your legacy and craft an individualized estate plan around your desires and hopes for the future. For those designated as the Executor in the will of a friend or family member, we can assist with all aspects of estate administration and probate. We also represent lenders when filing claims against estates.
Personal Injury
Insurance companies consistently undervalue injury claims. That is why you need an experienced advocate in your corner, not just an ad jingle. We will help you negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance company or go to court to get what you deserve. Our contingency fee arrangements give you the peace of mind that your injuries will not be compounded by legal fees. Experienced lawyers get meaningful results.
Eviction & Foreclosure
New York’s pro-tenant and pro-homeowner statutes make evictions and foreclosures challenging legal proceedings. We help landlords and banks assert their rights in a cost-effective manner. We are familiar with the statutory notice and pleading requirements in these proceedings and have successfully represented clients in evictions and foreclosures across Western New York.
Real Estate
Whether you are buying or selling real property, the transaction is likely to be one of the most significant deals you will ever make. We will walk you through every step and make sure your interests are protected and the deal gets closed. In addition, we represent clients in a variety of real estate litigation, including evictions, easement disputes, water rights challenges, and tax assessment proceedings.
