General commercial litigation constitutes a large portion of our litigation practice and includes contract, securities, partnership, joint venture, labor/employment, construction, real estate, insurance, admiralty, and international matters. With corporate and banking litigation backgrounds, our litigators are experienced in such areas as lender liability, mortgage foreclosure, securities disputes, bankruptcy and creditors' rights, civil RICO and antitrust matters. Our litigators also regularly handle matters involving estate and tax litigation.

Eaton & Van Winkle is committed to exploring alternatives to resolving disputes through litigation. Our litigation practitioners have extensive experience in arbitration, mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution. A number of our attorneys serve as court appointed mediators in Federal and State courts. We will continue to respond affirmatively to client needs that may require alternative dispute resolution methods or solutions not available in court.

Our litigators approach all matters with careful planning and focused effort. They are an experienced group committed to efficient service with a comprehensive understanding of the client's goals. A strong interrelationship with the firm's other practice areas contributes significantly to their overall knowledge and effectiveness as litigators.
