Our litigation department consists of highly experienced attorneys who find themselves at home in different types of courtrooms in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States – and occasionally other parts of the country. In this way, LM&P does not limit its contentious law practices to a single venue or single area of the law. LM&P is different. The firm’s strength lies is its versatility—its attorneys each bring their own unique specializations and varied professional backgrounds and employ a team approach to deliver value for money. The firm’s clients rightly demand this kind of individual attention, which is why LM&P’s attorneys are accustomed to responding swiftly and effectively to legal emergencies wherever they occur.

Our litigators in the commercial, insurance and admiralty sections typically can be found arguing at counsel table in the federal district courts and federal appeals courts, most often in New York City. Our litigators in the probate, family and civil sections are well-respected advocates who practice primarily in the superior courts and probate courts of Fairfield County, Connecticut. As client relationships are what matter to us, we handle a vast array of cases with amounts in controversy ranging from tens of millions of dollars to small claims.

• Our attorneys are experienced with the state and federal court systems.
