I help clients win consequential civil disputes. That includes achieving exceptional results at trial, in private arbitration, and on appeal. Smart advocacy often allows earlier success. I routinely collaborate with lawyers and non-lawyers to serve clients.Examples:Three insurance and financial services companies and one reinsurer based in Bermuda, on behalf of their Bermuda liquidators, in United States proceedings to recover more than $700 million of assets misappropriated by their former North Carolina-based owner.The former CFO of AIG, against self-interested or related party transaction claims based on businesses with overlapping directors; in a Martin Act lawsuit by the New York Attorney General; and in shareholder lawsuits.International investment funds in an audit malpractice case against a Top 5 accounting firm for failing to ascertain during multiple audit years that its feeder fund client's sole investment was in a Ponzi scheme.The Diocese of Rockville Centre, in a federal civil rights lawsuit against the Village of Old Westbury. The Diocese was prevented for 20 years from developing a sacred ministry - a Catholic cemetery - on a former estate in a famous Long Island community. The Diocese obtained its full entitlement.

Millions of acts of religious exercise will be possible into the twenty-second century.Princeton Theological Seminary, in a lawsuit against Rider University involving ownership of the Westminster Choir College campus.A new bank, in a lawsuit against it and its founding executives.
