Attorneys
There are many fine lawyers at many fine defense firms, but they all suffer from the same shortcoming—they do not think like a plaintiff. Why is that important? Because when someone owes your company money, you need to act fast. Defense firms don't do "fast." They delay, react and defend because they are trained to protect the status quo. Sometimes, however, the status quo doesn't work for you.
That's when you should call us. We have been disrupting the status quo for decades, and nobody does it better.
Our attorneys have represented companies in complex, high-stakes litigation matters for nearly 30 years. We represent corporations as plaintiffs in cases involving fraud, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, theft of confidential information and trade secrets, and virtually any other case in which a company finds itself as a plaintiff.
For example:
- Our attorneys currently represent a Fortune 100 financial institution in a lawsuit brought against a mortgage lender that allegedly sold tens of millions of dollars of fraudulent mortgage loans to major financial institutions. Within a week of learning of the alleged fraud, our attorneys obtained a prejudgment attachment of the lender's assets—and the assets of the lender's CEO—in federal district court.
- Our attorneys recently won a critical victory in a forum fight in a complex commercial case, in which twenty of the defendants sought to move the litigation to the forum of their choice.
- On behalf of ACandS, Inc., our attorneys won a reversal in the Third Circuit under the Federal Arbitration Act of an arbitration award against our client. Following this decision, our attorneys negotiated a highly favorable settlement on behalf of our client.
- Our attorneys successfully challenged an alleged default judgment against a Sri Lankan rubber manufacturer in a products liability case.
