Litigation

Expertise

Our litigation practice is internationally known and ranges from sophisticated antitrust and securities matters to every type of civil matter for a wide range of clients. For example, our firm has recently handled major litigations in such diverse areas as bankruptcy, fraud litigation, contract disputes, employment discrimination, trade secrets, banking, partnership law, architectural and engineering matters, energy law, civil rights claims, insurance law, land use and real estate transactions, family law, product-liability defense, environmental law, civil RICO, trusts and estates law, and UCC claims. We also handle a wide range of specialized disputes involving our numerous media clients, including copyright and trademark infringement actions, libel defense, and false advertising.

Satterlee is a firm that is noted for the excellence of its trial work. We have handled high profile cases that have been featured gavel-to-gavel on Court TV, and we devote the same energy, efficiency, and care to more routine matters that do not attract public attention. Satterlee frequently handles fast-paced matters such as preliminary injunctions and prior restraint cases where sophisticated trials and appeals occur in a matter of days or even hours. Our trial attorneys are aggressive, pragmatic, and result- oriented. Few firms can match Satterlee's ability to provide skilled and cost-effective commercial litigation services.

We service the litigation needs of our long-standing clients, including multinational investment companies, banks, insurance and reinsurance companies, other industrial companies, and individual clients, and are often called in to represent referral clients and other law firms, particularly at the trial and appeal stage. In every case, our goal is to obtain the best possible result in the most expeditious and cost-effective manner. Our extensive trial experience -- and our confidence with the dynamics of trials -- enables us to negotiate from a position of strength, and to obtain excellent results for our clients, both in the negotiation process and in the courtroom.
