Litigation

BMK’s litigators represent clients in federal and state trial and appellate courts, in administrative proceedings and in arbitration matters in New Jersey, New York and other jurisdictions. While aggressively pursuing our clients’ rights as plaintiffs or defendants, we are sensitive to the high costs of court proceedings. As trusted business and legal advisors, we will recommend and aggressively pursue, when necessary and appropriate, the issuance of temporary restraints or other interim injunctive relief and, alternatively, we will recommend arbitration, mediation or other alternative dispute resolution when those opportunities make sense. In all litigation matters, Brown Moskowitz & Kallen takes a bottom-line view, weighing what is best financially, commercially and practically for the client and its business, both today and into the future.
