The most substantial part of litigation (both in terms of time and money) is often the Discovery Process. Generally, it involves: Depositions, Production of Documents, Interrogatories, Request for Admissions and a host of other procedures. Discovery is intended to uncover evidence which will be used to support an opposing party's position at trial while requiring all parties to produce the evidence supporting their positions.

Finally, after several months or, in some cases years, the trial takes place - again - requiring a substantial expenditure of time and money.

From day one, we keep our clients informed and involved in each step of the litigation so that the client can monitor our efforts and direct our services. In addition, as the litigation progresses, we are sensitive to the possibility and, in many instances, the benefits of settling the case before going to trial. Nevertheless, when the opposing side is intractable in its demands and our client insists on applying all of our legal abilities , we do our best to economically control costs -- without compromising our client's legal position.
