Experience
- Preserved client's ownership rights in a foreclosure property on appeal, enabling resale and protecting the investment's full value while avoiding further litigation risk.
- Obtained a temporary restraining order enforcing a non-compete agreement for a financial institution, safeguarding business interests during a critical transition and preventing competitive harm.
- Secured confirmation of an arbitration award exceeding $600,000, plus interest, after removing a motion to vacate in federal court. The result preserved the client’s favorable arbitration outcome and efficient enforcement of a significant monetary recovery.
