Compassionate Advocates
We have an extensive background in advocating for our client's rights. In 2003, lawyer Mitchell Katine was one of the lawyers who brought Lawrence v. Texas to the U.S. Supreme Court. In a landmark and precedent-setting decision, the Court declared sodomy laws unconstitutional throughout the United States.
We also compassionately and zealously protect the rights of clients who are HIV-positive or have full-blown AIDS, protecting them from discrimination in the workplace, in their daily lives and while seeking vital medical treatment.
Mediation - an Alternative to Litigation
Given the time, expense and stress associated with a trial, sometimes litigation is not the most time- or cost-effective option to resolve your legal matters. Alternative dispute resolution methods like arbitration, negotiation or mediation may be much better-suited for you. Mitchell Katine understands the importance of mediation — he has been certified as a mediator since 1992. We are available to handle mediations involving all types of legal issues.
