Overall

We used Carole to help us with a real estate transaction that had some unique challenges. Carole and her associates did an excellent job of researching the issues and establishing a clear path to resolution. Carole kept us informed and updated during the process and she always explained the issues in a manner that allowed a lay person to understand.

We provide clients with a creative, hardworking team equipped to address even the most complex legal problems efficiently, effectively, and responsively. Our litigation attorneys can also draw on the vast experience of our non-litigation attorneys in the areas of real estate, eminent domain and land use, finance, taxation, and corporate law to provide the best advice and representation possible.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Our corporate reorganizations and mergers and acquisitions practice serves our corporate clients in designing appropriate transactional structures for corporate acquisitions, combinations, and mergers.

Business Disputes
Restructurings and bankruptcies are a combination of business transaction and litigation. For the best representation, the attorneys must have both broad litigation and practical business law experience. At the same time, clients are well-served to have a firm that can also draw on other disciplines, such as real estate, corporate finance, and employment law, to navigate all of the aspects that bankruptcy and debt resolution involve.
