We are a team of seasoned, aggressive advocates who are skillful in developing creative and cost-effective strategies to achieve winning results.

We have more litigators in our firm than any other discipline. Our litigators have broad experience in trying jury, non-jury and arbitration matters throughout the United States. As a group, we have achieved a reputation among our clients and peers as innovative, thorough and relentless in the pursuit of our clients’ objectives. Our litigators bring to the table superior advocacy skills and refined case management techniques – the right combination needed in today’s environment to support our clients’ goals.

While the resources we deploy vary depending on the size and complexity of each case, we apply the same tenacity and commitment to smaller, less complicated matters as we do to intricate, multimillion-dollar disputes. Regardless of size, we strive – in every engagement – to move far beyond the surface in order to learn more about our clients’ businesses and to offer real-world solutions to the unique problems they confront. This enables us to represent our clients better and to achieve exceptional results. 

We have been recognized by Chambers USA as a distinguished law firm in Pennsylvania in the area of general commercial litigation, including individual rankings for five of our attorneys in 2022. According to Chambers USA, 2022, clients reported “The team is excellent and responsive.”

Like our clients and their needs, our practice is diverse. Below are the major areas of concentration in which our litigators work.
