WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Jay is a master at depositions."
"He is thoughtful about our problems, and won't speak before he knows exactly what he wants to say."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"Almost universally, my clients are exceptionally sophisticated, so there are seldom situations where my contacts have not already thoroughly contemplated the proper approach to whatever issue we are facing. My goal is to ensure that they are fully equipped with all of their options and the potential pitfalls of each. In that regard, having a firm grasp on the law, nuances of the jurisdiction, and the philosophies and tendencies of our adversaries is of paramount importance. I also pride myself on being readily available to their needs and concerns at all times, and working toward building a personal relationship in addition to a professional rapport."
