51 years
Businesses today operate in a competitive environment increasingly complicated by sometimes overlapping contractual and regulatory obligations. As the Business Litigation Practice Group Leader of Woods Oviatt Gilman, LLP, I strive to assist our clients in the successful resolution of all aspects of business disputes arising out of such varied relationships as manufacturing, sales, product distribution, services, joint ventures, partnerships, limited liability companies, corporations, franchising, licensing, leasing, acquisitions and sales of businesses, real and personal property, lender liability, fiduciary relationships and governmental regulations.
We have established a record of success in protecting and advancing the legal rights and interests of our business clients in dispute resolution in State, Federal and Bankruptcy Trial and Appellate Courts as well as before alternate dispute resolution forums, including arbitration.
We follow a results-oriented approach that calls for the client to be directly involved throughout the handling of the case. Our clients benefit from our attention to detail, efficiency, deep experience, and our goal of achieving optimum results at the lowest practicable cost.
My experience includes the successful prosecution and defense of large and complex business dispute cases, including trials and appeals of such cases, in Federal, State and Bankruptcy courts and before alternate dispute resolution tribunals.
