About

Provided by Chiesa Shahinian & Giantomasi PC

CSG Law's Litigation Group has been strategically assembled to ensure nimble representation and optimal alignment with client needs. Our team of nearly 60 trial-tested former federal prosecutors and seasoned commercial litigators take pride in their courtroom skills, but work to avoid litigation through counseling, strategic planning and pre-litigation negotiation. We regularly litigate in federal and state trial-level and appellate courts, before administrative agencies and in alternative dispute resolution forums such as arbitration and mediation.

From time and resource-intensive commercial disputes to straightforward contract cases that benefit from practical and efficient advice and direction, our Litigation Group provides effective representation across an extensive range of areas.

Clients turn to CSG’s commercial litigators to manage disputes in every area of their business. Some examples include:

  • Bankruptcy, restructuring and workouts
  • Breach of contract/fiduciary duty
  • Employment
  • Lending and finance
  • Patents, copyrights, trade secrets and restrictive covenants
  • Professional liability
  • Securities
  • Shareholder and partnership disputes
  • Real estate, commercial leases and construction
