01
We take a position and defend it
Clients are told what we believe the case is worth and why. If our assessment changes as evidence comes in, we say so immediately rather than managing expectations quietly.
The firm
Civil litigators, 1999 to present.
25+ years spent on one kind of work: civil disputes that are contested, urgent, or spread across more than one country. Admitted local counsel in more than forty jurisdictions, and lawyers who still appear in court.

Why we exist
Built for the disputes that were already going badly.
Most civil claimants do not arrive early. They arrive after a year of unanswered letters, after the money moved, after the posts spread, after the other side hired counsel who assumed nobody would push back. That is the point at which this firm is usually retained, and it is the practice we designed for.
The work spans six groups: civil litigation, immigration, divorce and family litigation, defamation, harassment and stalking, and the broad range of other civil matters that do not fit a category. They share a method. Establish the facts, document them to an evidentiary standard, and put them in front of the body with the power to act.
We are candid about what we do not do. There is no criminal defense practice here, no transactional department, and no interest in matters where litigation is not the right answer. When a case belongs somewhere else, we say so at intake and refer it.
Record
Twenty five years. One practice.
1999
Founded as a litigation only practice
Two trial lawyers opened the firm to handle contested civil disputes that larger practices treated as unprofitable or unwinnable.
2006
Cross border enforcement practice
Judgment enforcement and asset tracing work took the firm into European litigation and its first Hague Convention proceedings.
2013
Reputation and digital evidence group
Online defamation, unmasking motions and device forensics became a standing practice rather than occasional work.
2019
Cross border harassment protection
A dedicated team now pairs immigration counsel with civil litigators for matters where a party is outside the country or their status is at issue.
How we operate
Four commitments we hold to in every file.
02
The lawyer you meet is the lawyer who litigates
Matters are staffed lean and led by the attorney who argues them. Nothing is passed to someone who has never spoken with the client and then argued from a memo.
03
Aggression means readiness, not noise
We do not send threatening letters we cannot back. We prepare files that make our position obvious to opposing counsel, then hold the line.
04
Borders are logistics, not obstacles
Foreign defendants, offshore assets and conduct originating abroad are handled with admitted local counsel working to our strategy and our timetable.
Engagement
Ask us what we would do with your case.
Consultations are confidential and handled by an attorney. If litigation is the wrong tool for your situation, we will tell you that on the first call.
