Profile
Strategic Business Counsel with a Pilot’s Precision
The Behal Law Group LLC is a results-oriented law firm located in Columbus, Ohio, known for its practical and strategic approach to legal challenges. Partner Jack D’Aurora brings a unique and disciplined perspective to his practice. A former Naval Flight Officer who flew F-14s off the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk, Jack applies the same level of focus, preparation, and situational awareness to his legal cases as he did to his military service. Based near the courthouse in downtown Columbus, Jack represents businesses and individuals in complex disputes, helping them navigate conflicts that threaten their financial stability and professional reputations.
Commercial Litigation and Business Law
Jack D’Aurora’s primary focus is Commercial Litigation. He helps medium-sized, privately held companies resolve disputes involving breach of contract, partnership disagreements, and shareholder issues. He understands that litigation is often a distraction from running a business, so he strives for efficient resolutions through negotiation or mediation whenever possible. However, when court intervention is necessary, he is a seasoned advocate who has successfully argued cases all the way to the Ohio Supreme Court. In addition to litigation, he serves as outside general counsel, assisting with Business Formation, drafting operating agreements, and structuring transactions.
Real Estate and Insurance Disputes
The firm also has a strong practice in Real Estate Law. Jack represents developers, construction companies, and property owners in transactions and disputes. This includes handling issues related to commercial leases, property defects, and insurance coverage disputes. His experience representing a national title insurance company gives him deep insight into the complexities of property rights and title issues. Whether it is a construction defect claim or a disagreement over a commercial lease renewal, Jack provides the clear, actionable advice needed to protect real estate assets.
A Voice for Justice
Beyond his private practice, Jack D’Aurora is a well-known voice in the Columbus community. He is a regular contributor to the Columbus Dispatch, where he writes op-eds on social justice, legal ethics, and public policy. This commitment to the broader principles of justice informs his practice, where he is known for his integrity and ethical standards. The Behal Law Group operates with a ‘Nordstrom-style’ service philosophy, believing that the key differentiator in law is how clients are treated. They offer a responsive, personal alternative to large, impersonal firms.
