In an era in which approximately 95% of civil cases are eventually compromised and settled, it is more important than ever for your business litigation attorneys to have actual courtroom experience in which witnesses are examined and cross-examined, arguments are presented, and tactical decisions are often made without a safety net. Only a lawyer with actual trial experience can command the best results in your case.

Carmen D. Caruso and Sarah J. Isaacson have substantial trial experience. We receive many cases as referrals from other lawyers because Caruso is regarded as a “go to” lawyer in sharply contested cases. He has had substantial success in cases seeking damages, injunctions, declaratory judgments and other relief in a wide variety of business disputes.
