Arbitration

Strategic Advocacy in Alternative Dispute Resolution

​

While our firm strongly believes in the constitutional right to a trial by jury, we recognize that modern commercial relationships often involve arbitration agreements. When your dispute requires resolution through arbitration, our team brings the same level of preparation, strategic insight, and advocacy excellence that distinguishes our courtroom practice.

​

Sophisticated Approach to Arbitration

​

Arbitration presents unique challenges and opportunities that differ from traditional litigation. Our approach is tailored to maximize advantages while mitigating the limitations of this forum:

​

Strategic Selection and Procedure

​

We understand that arbitration outcomes often hinge on arbitrator selection and procedural determinations. Our team navigates these critical early decisions with strategic insight, working to secure favorable panel composition and procedural rules that serve your interests.

​

Efficient, Focused Advocacy

​

Arbitration typically offers streamlined procedures with limited discovery. Our attorneys excel in this condensed environment, focusing on the most impactful evidence and arguments while maintaining the thoroughness that complex disputes demand. We develop concise, compelling presentations that resonate with sophisticated arbitrators.

​

Written Advocacy Excellence

​

Despite the emphasis on hearing presentations, written submissions remain crucial in arbitration. Our briefs and memoranda are crafted with the precision and persuasiveness that have become our hallmark, effectively framing issues and advancing your position before the arbitration panel.

​

Industry-Specific Expertise

​

Many arbitrations involve specialized industry knowledge or technical considerations. Our attorneys develop the substantive expertise needed to effectively present complex industry concepts to arbitrators, translating technical matters into clear, persuasive arguments.

​

The Right Balance of Aggression and Pragmatism

​

Effective arbitration advocacy requires balancing aggressive representation with pragmatic efficiency. Our team strikes this balance by:

  • Pursuing strategic discovery that targets essential evidence without unnecessary expense

  • Developing focused witness examinations that emphasize key testimony

  • Creating compelling demonstrative exhibits that clarify complex concepts

  • Preparing concise, powerful opening and closing presentations

  • Maintaining the same unwavering commitment to client service that defines our firm

 

Our Commitment

​

While we maintain that jury trials often provide the most favorable forum for dispute resolution, we recognize that arbitration is sometimes unavoidable or potentially advantageous. When your dispute requires arbitration, our team brings the same dedication, strategic thinking, and advocacy excellence that has earned our firm its reputation for litigation success.

 

We approach arbitration not as a compromise, but as an alternative forum that demands equally sophisticated representation. Our commitment to your business interests remains unwavering, regardless of the forum in which your dispute must be resolved.
