I primarily represent clients involved in government investigations. I have defended some of the largest corporations in the country in criminal and civil investigations and prosecutions, as well as in parallel administrative, regulatory and civil litigation. My experience includes antitrust, securities, foreign corrupt practices, banking law, hedge funds, export controls and contractor corruption. I also have significant experience counseling individuals and corporations involved in congressional investigations.. I also represent individuals in government investigations.. In a relatively recent case, I successfully defended a telecommunications executive and business owner accused of fraud in a lengthy trial, during which my client was acquitted of all charges.  In addition to government investigations, I often represent individuals and companies in complex commercial litigation and disputes involving First Amendment issues such as defamation and invasion of privacy.. I maintain a strong interest in and commitment to representing non-profit organizations and providing legal services pro bono.

Hello.  I am a results-oriented attorney and I stress prudent, business-minded results for my clients.  My advice to my clients takes into account not only the legal ramifications of their pursuits, but also the results as they apply to the business' owner's bottom line.  I never sacrifice the "big picture" for obscure and esoteric legal battles, yet strive to ensure that my clients are protected from the risks that really matter.. I have represented everyone from Mom & Pops to large multi-million dollar corporations and I believe that top-notch representation does not have to cost an arm and a leg.

For nearly 35 years, I have been a general business litigator, with substantial experience in jury trials, bench trials and all forms of alternate dispute resolution.  Over the years, I have also developed considerable experience in handling complex estate disputes and legal malpractice cases and have extensive experience in dealing with disputes arising out of M&A activity and commercial contracts.  My cases have often involved extensive use of expert witnesses, particularly those involving business valuation, value of services and other complex economic issues.. Apart from litigation, I have also negotiated mergers and acquisitions, documented complex real estate financing ventures and drafted a great many contracts.  For approximately four years, while a partner at a large multinational law firm, I also acted as outside general counsel for a mid-sized government contractor (approximately $500 million dollars in annual sales), including the provision of advice on all aspects of its business operations.. With the Butzel Long platform, my colleagues and I are capable of efficiently handling all types of cases, from multi-district class actions involving billions of dollars to relatively small contract disputes.
