Litigation
Although we attempt to resolve cases without having to sue, there are times when litigation is the only option.
We have been litigating (the process of suing in the courts) since 1976. We have experience in the federal and state courts. We also have extensive experience in administration proceedings.
If you are being sued in New York State, or wish to sue someone, just give us a call or write to us and we will gladly discuss the procedure and cost with you.
In certain cases, such as personal injury (accident or malpractice, for example), we often take the cases on a contingency basis. This means that you do not have to pay legal fees until we either win or settle your case. The usual legal fee in such cases is one-third of the amount recovered.
Note: The statements above, which are based on New York law, are intended to inform, not to advise. You should consult an attorney before making decisions in this area.
