Abraham Lincoln
advised lawyers to discourage their clients from litigation, and
there is much wisdom in that counsel. But we know there are times
when discussions and negotiation fail to reach a fair and reasonable
resolution, and litigation (or arbitration) is the best available
option. When that is the situation, we have the experience to move
your matter forward expeditiously and cost effectively.
