Industries
Construction
Our lawyers have represented owners, general contractors, subcontractors, and production builders in commercial and residential construction cases. The projects have ranged from large, multi-family condominium and apartment complexes to residential subdivisions and single-family homes. We have pursued and defended breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, lender liability, and construction defect claims. We have been successful at trial, in arbitration and mediation. What sets us apart from other law firms is our in-house professional, formerly employed in the construction industry, who has field experience with scheduling, estimating, project management, and reading blueprints.
Healthcare
In recent years, fraud and abuse in the healthcare industry has accounted for 10% of total spending on healthcare, or more than $120 billion a year. Prosecuting healthcare fraud has become a higher priority for federal law enforcement since Congress passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) in 1996. At the same time, the healthcare industry has become more dependent than ever on electronic information and technology to deliver patient care.
These trends require a law firm that understands how electronic information is created, altered, hidden, and destroyed. As a leader in preventing and resolving fraud-related disputes efficiently, using proven electronic evidence management methods and state-of-the-art technology, our firm is ready to fill that role for you. In addition, over the years, we have represented physicians, hospitals, and clinics in contract disputes, medical malpractice, and antitrust actions.
Financial Services
In financial services, a company's reputation for integrity and the public's trust are often as important as the money at stake in a case. Frequently, the financial instruments and transactions are complex and involve multiple parties and entities. In those situations, our firm has a laser-like focus on getting to the heart of the matter efficiently. We aggressively seek practical solutions that satisfy our client's strategic objectives. Moreover, our proven knowledge and use of best practices in electronic evidence management gives our clients a competitive advantage over their rivals.
We work with banks, investment funds, life insurance companies, commercial leasing companies, factors, and other privately held and publicly traded companies, stock brokers and brokerage companies, mortgage brokers, and executives. We have pursued and defended breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and other business torts, civil RICO, accounting malpractice, securities fraud, and fidelity bond claims, violations of non-compete, confidentiality, and non-solicitation agreements, and claims by secured creditors.
