Our New York Litigation practice helps clients with every aspect of their business and commercial litigation needs, nationally and internationally. Our litigators have significant depth and breadth of resources, a commitment to deliver high quality, cost-effective services and a detailed knowledge of clients’ industries and business concerns. We offer a full-service Litigation Department with attorneys who specialize in specific practice areas in bankruptcy and restructuring, consumer class action, commercial litigation, real estate, intellectual property, securities and fiduciary duty, and trade secrets and non-competes.

Seyfarth's New York litigators are experienced, innovative and aggressive in their pursuit of strategic outcomes. Our approach includes a thorough assessment of client needs and concerns, assignment of attorneys with demonstrated skills and experience in the appropriate areas, client participation in planning and decision-making, thorough case preparation, effective use of paralegals and other resources, and consideration of alternative dispute resolution processes at the beginning of disputes and at various phases in the life of a dispute. Taking advantage of our size and resources, our attorneys move beyond the development of broad-based litigation skills and specialize in one or more areas of litigation practice. By doing so, we cultivate highly knowledgeable team members who develop and deliver focused, innovative legal solutions.
