Comprehensive Business, Real Estate and Insurance Practice

  • Business Litigation WSB prosecutes and defends cases involving a wide range of business disputes. Using a practical and aggressive approach, the firm strives to resolve all disputes as early as possible. However, clients know that WSB lawyers have the experience and resources to try any matter when an actual trial will provide the best resolution for the client.
  • Commercial Insurance WSB counsels clients about commercial insurance disputes, and prosecutes claims for denial of insurance benefits. WSB backs up every case with a nearly unmatched level of experience, giving every client the best possible representation. Other law firms frequently hire WSB to help them resolve complex insurance problems.
  • Real Estate and Construction Lawyers WSB prosecutes and defends cases involving real estate sales disputes, title disputes, environmental disputes, construction liability disputes and a variety of other real property matters. The firm employs the same practical and aggressive approach used in business and insurance matters to give clients the best possible resolution.
  • Appellate Practice WSB has a well-established appellate practice that includes post-judgment appeals of trial court decisions and pre-judgment petitions for review of interim trial court rulings. The firm’s unique combination of trial and appellate practice helps WSB lawyers offer clients keen insights at every stage of the litigation process.
