Civil Litigation and Business Law

Businesses are different.  They have unique problems that require unique solutions.  Schern Richardson is different than most law firms.  Our attorneys are also entrepreneurs who understand the challenges businesses face in today’s climate.  We serve our clients on their terms and on their turf.  We prefer meeting with clients at their offices, an experience which allows us to truly see things from their perspective.

Our experience spans from the boardroom to the courtroom.  When a client’s business and livelihood are at stake, civil litigation can be a daunting proposition. The Firm’s attorneys possess experience won while litigating hundreds of civil actions, including bench trials and jury verdicts.  From justice courts to large and complex litigation before the state superior and federal district courts, the attorneys at Schern Richardson have the experience to skillfully litigate almost any civil claim.  See our Results page for examples of our courtroom victories.

The Firm’s attorneys are also mindful of when the time and expense of litigating a claim is not in the client’s best interests. Part of the attorneys’ roles as counselors is to recognize these situations and advise the client accordingly while remaining cognizant that the ultimate decision lies in the client’s hands. Time and experience have shown that the best decisions are often business decisions. Helping clients recognize and understand the relative risks of litigation is an integral part of the Firm’s practice.
