Contracts and Commercial Transactions
We believe that a carefully negotiated and drafted contract is the best way to protect your legal rights, and to minimize the possibility of a dispute resulting in litigation. We represent business and personal clients in diverse contracts and commercial matters. As a thoroughly experienced New York contracts and commercial lawyer, we are equipped to provide legal representation for businesses of all sizes, as well as individuals involved in commercial transactions, consulting work, or contracts of any kind.

We thoroughly and meticulously draft contractual terms with the goal of leaving nothing to chance. While it may be impossible to envision every scenario that might conceivably arise in the future, we believe that our approach affords our clients maximum protection against both foreseeable situations, as well as unanticipated or unlikely events, that may cause legal issues in the future.
Our contracts often prevent the escalation of disputes, because of the thoroughness of the agreements we negotiate and draft We are proud that the contracts we negotiate and draft can serve as a rule book for business conduct, and therefore may often solve disputes long before litigation is commenced, or even contemplated.
Commercial Litigation
When a commercial dispute cannot be resolved through settlement negotiations, or by mediation, litigation may be the only option. In those cases, we aggressively represent our commercial clients, whether they are the plaintiff or the defendant. Our many years of successfully litigating various types of disputes in the courts of New York State, give us the experience to zealously and effectively represent our client’s interests.
The pre-trial discovery phase of litigation is critical to uncovering evidence crucial to proving the validity of our client’s case or defense. We carefully and relentlessly utilize the New York rules of pre-trial discovery in order to obtain important evidence that our adversary would prefer be left unknown.
As a highly experienced NYC Commercial Attorney and New York commercial litigation attorney, we are sensitive to the need to not only achieve a desirable result, but also to do so in a cost effective manner.
In our litigation practice, we extensively prepare our cases for trial. This often results in negotiations that lead to successful settlements without the need for a trial. Successfully resolving a litigated case before trial may save our clients from the added expense, time and inconvenience of a trial. Furthermore, we are often able to resolve commercial cases by a combination of thorough pre-trial discovery, well prepared and aggressively conducted depositions, and motion practice.
Although our office is located in Manhattan, we represent clients in all counties of the City of New York, as well as Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Rockland, and upstate New York. If it is inconvenient for a client to travel to our office, alternate arrangements can be made.
