There are times when we are confronted with determining what is our “BATNA” – Best Alternative To No Agreement. In evaluating our choices, the prosecution or defense of litigation is an alternative whereby the parties, confronted with an intractable problem that they are unable to successfully resolve on their own, turn to our judicial system. While litigation can be time-consuming and expensive, it may be the most effective way to seek the appropriate remedy or resolution to a disputed claim.

We do not limit our practice to one side. Rather, our firm represents both plaintiffs and defendants. By representing plaintiffs in some cases and defendants in others, you gain perspective and can better evaluate and exploit the strengths and weaknesses of a case. You also have a better sense of what a neutral decision-maker, like a judge or jury, is likely to think and will find persuasive. We believe that, by representing both plaintiffs and defendants, we can be better advocates and counselors for our clients, on whichever side they may find themselves.

An aggressive, well-planned strategy is the key to any successful litigation, arbitration or mediation. As resourceful and creative negotiators, we expend our efforts to resolve seemingly intractable disputes in the best interests of our clients. At PRICE LAW FIRM, we attempt to develop and implement strategies that will place our clients in a position of strength, thereby enabling a successful and early resolution of disputes.

Through regular client involvement and communication, a course of action is planned within a client's budgetary constraints. By limiting our litigation practice to real estate and business matters, we provide our clients with the cost efficiency and immediate answers that come through prior knowledge and experience in these specific areas of law. With this knowledge, we can often avoid unnecessary and costly delays in our attempts to secure a positive outcome.
