We apply forward-thinking ideas and solutions to the most challenging legal issues you face, and approach each case with passion and commitment. From the first steps of the litigation process and right through to the end, we’ll handle everything you need to be in your best shape at trial. We know how complicated litigation can be. From pleadings, affidavits, examinations, motions, mediation, undertakings, refusals, pretrial, and finally, trial.
We have a record of success with the skill and ability to prevail in court when a business solution or negotiation fails. We have obtained several million dollar plus settlements and verdicts for our clients.
In 2019 we obtained a jury verdict of $4.25 million in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan in an inverse condemnation lawsuit against the City of Detroit.
In 2007 we reached a very successful settlement in a Florida condemnation case, increasing the amount paid to our client by over 100% from the city's original offer of $670,000 to over $1.4 million.
In 2003 we obtained a jury verdict of $4 million for a client in another inverse condemnation case which was also affirmed on appeal. Michigan Lawyers Weekly recognized this as the sixth largest verdict in any trial in the state of Michigan during the year of 2003, and the highest verdict in any trial held in Wayne County Circuit Court in 2003.
We were recognized in Crain's Detroit Business in its Twentieth Anniversary Issue (2005) for obtaining 2 of the 20 largest awards in the Detroit Area in the previous 20 years. No other law firm had two cases on the list.
We have been providing expert legal advice to clients across the state and nationwide for more than 35 years.
