 LITIGATION AND APPEALS Evans, Osborne and Kreizman, LLC represents a wide range of individual and business clients. An integral part of our representation involves dispute resolution. Dispute resolution can take many forms. Our attorneys strive to resolve disagreements by means of efficient advocacy. Using our broad based experience, we have been successful in resolving disputes without resorting to litigation or, if necessary, by aggressively litigating to protect the interests of our clients. The attorneys of Evans, Osborne and Kreizman, LLC have represented plaintiffs and defendants in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania and in the Federal Courts in New York and New Jersey. We have litigated a wide variety of business and commercial issues including franchise, antitrust and contract matters. We have represented parties in disputes ranging from wills and estates, employment, insurance, taxation and real estate. Our personal injury attorneys offer many years experience in cases arising from injuries resulting from motor vehicle and slip and fall accidents, workplace injuries, malpractice, product liability or toxic torts. Our admiralty attorneys offer a unique expertise in maritime law. Prior to the commencement of any litigation we provide counseling to help our clients evaluate whether to pursue litigation and explore all reasonable avenues of dispute resolution. If after consultation, our client makes a decision to litigate, trial preparation is conducted with the appropriate staffing of partners, associates and paralegals so discovery remains focused and cost efficient. We avoid repetitive research and draw upon the expertise of the entire firm for support. When research is necessary we rely upon our sizable library as well as the many offerings of the Internet. We utilize technology for document management in complex litigation situations. During litigation we strive to keep our clients well-informed at every step. While we recognize that clients expect aggressive advocacy, we balance forceful representation with prudent advice. When our clients best interests are served by settlement, alternative dispute resolution, such as arbitration or mediation, or other non-litigation solutions, we endeavor to select the procedures which are both cost and time efficient. Throughout the course of litigation we keep our clients advised of their rights, duties and liabilities. If settlement demands or offers are made, we assist our clients in analyzing the reasonableness of the proposal. The firm of Evans, Osborne and Kreizman, LLC also provides specialized services in the area of post-trial or appellate work. A number of our attorneys began their legal careers as judicial law clerks for Federal and State Court Judges at both the appellate and trial levels. As law clerks, these attorneys obtained valuable knowledge in the techniques of legal research as well as the methodology in the judicial decision making process. Over the years our firm has been asked to assume the handling of cases after a judge or jury has ruled against a party. Our familiarity with the judicial processes allows us to assist clients who have suffered a loss at the trial level and seek a reversal through post trial motions and appeals. By offering a new and different perspective to an existing case the attorneys often have been able to bring about a successful result.
