A strategic and knowledgeable advocate for our business dispute

Our small tech company was facing a complex contract dispute with a former partner, and we turned to James Nikraftar at Miller Barondess. His recognition in Commercial Litigation was immediately evident. James provided a clear, strategic assessment of our position, cutting through the legal complexities to explain our risks and options in practical business terms. He was particularly adept at navigating the interplay between the contractual issues and potential employment law implications, leveraging his broader litigation background effectively. While his response time could occasionally be slower during particularly busy periods, the quality of his work never wavered. He secured a favorable settlement that protected our intellectual property and avoided a costly trial. James is a sharp, dedicated attorney who earns his accolades.
