A high-tech
company had
been in a business
dispute for eight years. Attorney Mary Donne Peters took on the lawsuit for the company, and proved – document by document, witness by witness – why the case was not worth what the other side wanted. We helped the clients settle the case reasonably – so they could get back to business.

In a recent case,
we represented a
contractor accused
of wrongly installing hospital equipment, resulting in catastrophic head injuries to a patient. Attorney
Jim Standard worked to prove the contractor was not at fault, and obtained an early dismissal of the case. In getting the early dismissal, we were able to save the contractor thousands of dollars in defense costs, and perhaps millions in the event of an adverse jury verdict.
