Our Firm regularly represents large institutional clients with dedicated in-house counsel, and works hand-in-hand with general counsel to achieve an intimate understanding of our government clients’ needs in order provide cost-effective, high-quality services. We also emphasize preventive legal strategies to manage their legal risks. For example, our attorneys work closely with cities and other government entities to prevent liabilities from arising, advising on public records production, the requirements of the Government-in-the-Sunshine Act, Title VII, Title IX, FERPA, ADEA, ADA, and HIPAA requirements. As part of our firm’s litigation avoidance strategies, we routinely provide our government clients and their insurers with continuing education and in-service training.

Our attorneys also routinely advise municipalities and public officials on their duties under state and federal laws, administrative regulations, charter, inter- agency disputes, the bid procurement process, and planning and zoning issues.

We have drafted and updated Policy and Procedure Manuals for municipalities, including updates as to current laws and regulations, conducting in-house training to upper management in procedural applications thereof.

The Firm offers additional value-added services as part of its municipal liability defense practice. We offer consultation services at any time of day, whenever needed, for emergency situations, including those which require on-site investigations or involve catastrophic accidents. Besides the emergency on-site investigation, our attorneys and investigators work diligently to evaluate liability and prepare for any potential claim. Our firm will consult with municipal and state authorities to offer our recommendations for corrections on all matters which may affect liability and concern issues regarding municipal corporations, planning and zoning ordinances as well as Constitutional law affecting private and public agreements, insurance matters, and liability under state law or exposure under federal law.
