The
firm is available to handle complex
commercial litigation lawsuits in both the
State and Federal Courts of New
Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
It also represents clients in
other states with permission of
the Court. These cases run the
gamut from breach of contract
and fraud to statutory causes
of action and injunctions.
The Nissenbaum Law Group's
approach to litigation is responsive
to its clients' needs and goals.
The firm encourages open and
continuous communication so
that it can assess at every
stage what works best for each
client. In certain cases, clients
may want to take an aggressive,
"no holds barred"
approach to bringing the matter
to trial, while in others, they
may wish to take a more conciliatory
approach and actively explore
settlement. Indeed, sometimes
the most appropriate approach
is alternate dispute resolution,
such as mediation or arbitration.
The key is to tailor the approach
in accord with each client's
preferences and needs.
