Worked herd for me - thanks!
Mr. White and his firm were very patient and helpful throughout my stressful and lengthy securities fraud case, walking me through the entire process. He led me through the mediation process and really fought hard for the best settlement.

pleasant experience
My first experience with an American lawyer for a civil claim. Extremely pleased with the experience. From the first contact to the final (satisfactory) result I was given good advice and timely and correct analysis. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough.

Very personable, professional, highly skilled
I am a retired lawyer, after some 35 years in practice. My wife and I needed help with a securities matter and connected with Mr. White. Long story short, he accurately analyzed the case and got a very good result for us. I admired his approach and tactics. Highly recommended.
