PRACTICE AREAS

Barton has a comprehensive commercial litigation and trial practice. Our attorneys know how to litigate and they know how to try cases. This is an important distinction. Good litigators need to be able to see the field, manage incredible amounts of information and coordinate many moving parts. Early case assessments and client strategy sessions play a crucial role in framing a case for successful disposition. Because we have the experience and proven ability, we can envision the end product and deliver the results our clients want.
Our litigation and trial practice covers a wide range of commercial and civil disputes in both the federal and state courts throughout the United States. We are also well versed in ADR techniques, both in lieu of litigation and as a litigation strategy.
Barton also has an accomplished appellate practice, often finding itself involved in successful appeals at both the state and federal level that will ultimately create new law or clarify an unsettled area of the law.
We are zealous advocates, but we are also counselors. Risk management and litigation avoidance are at the forefront of our efforts as litigation counselors. We offer in-house training programs to our clients and take a proactive approach to reviewing our clients' business practices, contracts and relationships to avoid or reduce the incidents of litigation whenever possible.
