Specialized Legal Representation

Beyond our core commercial practice, we have developed deep expertise in several specialized areas of law, offering focused and effective representation where it matters most.

⚖️ Defamation Defense

In an age where reputations can be damaged with a few keystrokes, we stand as a shield for our clients. New York’s robust anti-defamation laws (anti-SLAPP) are designed to deter baseless lawsuits, and our firm was at the forefront of this legal evolution, having won one of the first major cases interpreting this law at the New York Supreme Court’s First Appellate Division. If you have been unjustly targeted by a defamation lawsuit, we have the proven experience to defend your name and seek justice, including the recovery of attorney fees and punitive damages.

Appeals

The legal process does not always end with a trial verdict. When judicial errors occur, a successful appeal is critical. Our attorneys are experienced in bringing appeals in both New York State and Federal courts. We understand that the appeals process is time-sensitive and requires a different skill set than trial litigation. Other law firms often refer appellate cases to us due to our focused experience and flexible billing, trusting us to meticulously review the record and craft compelling arguments to correct legal mistakes.

Judgment Enforcement

Obtaining a court judgment is only half the battle; enforcing it is the other. Many civil litigation attorneys in New York excel at winning cases but lack the specific knowledge required to collect the money owed. This is where our firm excels. We are tenacious in pursuing judgment debtors, using every legal tool available to locate and seize assets to satisfy the judgment. We know the rights of judgment creditors and are relentless in ensuring our clients receive every dollar they are lawfully owed.

Expertise from Wage and Hour Lawyers

We are also strong advocates for both employees and employers in wage and hour disputes. The laws in New York State, New York City, and at the federal level provide significant protections and penalties related to wage theft.

• For employees, we prosecute cases involving unpaid minimum wage and overtime, seeking not only the wages owed but also punitive damages and attorney’s fees. We want every worker to know that their immigration status does not prevent them from seeking justice for unpaid labor.
• For employers, we provide a robust defense against wage and hour claims, leveraging our deep understanding of labor laws to protect your business from unfounded accusations.
