Business and Corporate Law

• Trade Secrets
• Intellectual Property
  Protecting one’s intellectual property rights has never been more important, or more challenging, than now. Intellectual property disputes are increasingly common and hard fought. Nearly every business relies on IP and confronts the challenge of protecting and leveraging its IP assets. With the forces of globalization and technology continually altering the shape of IP law and with virtually anyone capable of creating, copying and transferring digital data in a few keystrokes, this is more of a challenge than ever before.

  While our personal injury lawyers focus their practice on bringing to justice those who are responsible for accidents and injuries, our lawyers and staff will also help evaluate and assist in the recovery of all of the client’s available insurance benefits from such sources as medical insurance, medical payment benefits and uninsured motorist coverage. Whether these injuries result from a car accident, construction accident, or premises liability matter, we are committed to securing just compensation for economic damages, bodily injury, pain and suffering and permanent physical impairment for our clients. Our commitment to each and every personal injury client is to provide him or her with conscientious, professional and ethical representation in a timely and cost effective manner.
