Litigation Attorney

Whether you need to file a civil lawsuit or you’re being sued, we advise you speak to a civil litigation lawyer in order to determine the best course of action for you to take. Similar to chess, litigation requires an understanding of the law, experience, and a calculated strategy in order to outdo your opponent. If you wish to avoid trial altogether, but you’re stuck at an impasse, let our lawyers help you settle through arbitration or mediation.

Reasons for Litigation:
  • Breach of Contract
  • Real Estate
  • Product Liability
  • Wrongful Death

Business Attorney

Regardless of carefully drafted contracts and well-defined business relationships, disputes and litigation are bound to happen. While some business disputes are settled quickly, others may call for negotiations in order to reach mutually agreeable terms. While more severe disputes could require litigation to reach a resolution. Our commercial litigation attorneys can help fight to protect your business’ best interest.

Related to Business:
  • Business Contracts
  • Commercial Litigation
  • Business Torts
  • Debt Collections

Injury Lawyer

If you have suffered an injury and another party was responsible you could receive compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, lost wages, and more. Unfortunately, when you have been injured through no fault of your own, the effects can be more than physically limiting. Our personal injury lawyers will work tirelessly in order to secure the compensation you deserve, so you and your family can begin the healing process.

Causes of Injury:
  • Car Accidents
  • Construction Accidents
  • Slip & Falls
  • Workplace Accidents

What Our Clients Say...
Alexander is a wonderful attorney who goes above and beyond for me. His availability and willingness to communicate is truly impressive, he will see me on short notice and answer my calls at all hours of the day. He gives his time very generously and does not nickel and dime me for phone calls, emails and even in person meetings which many other attorneys will do. He listens patiently and proactively to my issues and he advocates aggressively for me in front of the court and the judges. I am confident that he has my best interests at heart at all times. In a world of many slick, fast-billing attorneys Alexander stands out for his integrity and real character. I would and have recommended him to friends, family and colleagues in need of legal counsel. He is an attorney with heart!
