Litigation Practice

NRG litigators have earned a reputation for excellence in all areas of high-stakes, high-profile, complex divorce and family law disputes. Clients look to NRG for practical and cost-effective solutions to their most challenging disputes – and we deliver. We tackle the toughest problems and we win for our clients. Our attorneys combine creative, innovative legal strategies with the tenacity and practical experience of the seasoned advocate. We collaborate with our clients and keep them involved in every stage of the process. We understand their personal lives, their goals and their needs. The result is that our clients stay in control of their litigation, rather than having litigation control them.

The NRG difference comes from many areas. First and foremost, we are experienced trial attorneys who regularly try and win cases. In addition, we also play leadership roles in multi-state litigation matters. Our lawyers have a broad range of experience in many areas of family law, enabling us to bring together winning teams of lawyers with the right mix of skills to get clients the best possible results in any setting.

Our capabilities extend as well to arenas beyond the trial courtroom. We are experienced and accomplished appellate advocates, and have achieved victories in appellate courts. We also understand that disputes are often best resolved outside the courtroom. Thus, we make use of tools such as arbitration, mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution. We also are skilled negotiators who have effectuated hundreds of settlements on behalf of our clients.

Complex litigation problems today sometimes take the form of not just a single proceeding, but numerous related cases going forward simultaneously. Representing clients effectively in such situations can be as much about management skills as legal skills. We are skilled in managing complex multi-jurisdictional litigation when formulating and maintaining consistent strategy and legal and factual themes is critical. We are experienced in directing teams of counsel in multiple jurisdictions in accordance with a tailored master strategy.

At NRG, we are more than just savvy courtroom technicians and litigation managers. We also provide strategic counsel for our clients, using our knowledge to assist our clients in being proactive rather than reactive. Often working with other highly-respected professionals from other disciplines, we provide advice and devise action plans and policies that help clients avoid enmeshment in costly litigation in the first place. We provide strategical planning sessions for clients so that they are optimally equipped to avoid or minimize litigation risk.

NRG's litigation attorneys have appeared as television commentators.  Some of our litigators have written for prestigious publications and have been featured as speakers at conferences for the public and members of the legal profession.

In addition to our seasoned trial lawyers, our practice includes a group of talented younger lawyers. We endeavor to ensure that our young lawyers not only receive comprehensive training in the technical skills necessary to be effective members of our litigation teams, but that they receive the level of substantive training and experience to permit them to be fully responsive to our clients’ needs at every level.

In each case, we assemble the right combination of lawyers to deal appropriately with our client’s individual needs, supported by the technology and case management techniques that enable us to serve clients more productively and efficiently.
