Many legal disputes nowadays are resolved via mediation or arbitration rather than through court litigation. The neutral mediator helps the parties resolve their dispute but cannot force them to settle. Arbitration resembles court litigation in a less formal setting and generally results in a binding and enforceable decision. Both ADR methods can be faster and more economical options to court proceedings. We offer mediation and arbitration in consumer, landlord/tenant, and community issues.

Copyright can provide significant legal protection for a broad range of intellectual property. Securing the full benefits of such protection can be complicated, avoiding infringement of works owned by others can be daunting, and the multitude of legal issues modern technology has created can be overwhelming. Our practice offers diverse services, including assisting the average creative individual, non-profits, associations and small business to register copyrights and expedite applications.
