Litigation
ZEK's litigation practice embraces
virtually all phases of commercial activity. Our litigators
regularly represent clients in judicial and quasi-judicial
proceedings before federal and state courts in the Tri-State
area, including the appellate courts. The Firm also appears
on its clients' behalf in various courts in other jurisdictions
throughout the United States. ZEK has substantial experience
handling complex litigation matters as well as more routine
types of disputes. Because of the financial and operational
costs often associated with the litigation process, we pride
ourselves on handling our clients' matters efficiently and
with minimal disruption to their businesses. Our philosophy
involves assisting our clients in establishing clear litigation
objectives and proposing appropriate strategies to accomplish
these goals quickly, efficiently and smoothly. We staff matters
as necessary, usually with a partner and an associate. Of
course, the number of attorneys assigned to any particular
file is a function of the complexity and volume of work required
to address the issues presented in that case. We stress responsiveness
to our clients' questions and needs in promoting their interests
throughout the litigation process.
ZEK also has facility in representing clients in the context
of various alternative dispute resolution fora. Our lawyers
have successfully arbitrated disputes on behalf of many of
our clients under the auspices of, for example, the New York
Stock Exchange, the NASD, the American Arbitration Association
and the various arbitration and mediation facilities offered
by the state and federal courts.
The Firm believes in striving to accommodate its clients'
business objectives and litigation budgets. As a result, in
cooperation with its clients, ZEK has been a pioneer in both
"shared litigation" with in-house litigation counsel and in
devising and in some cases, encouraging non-traditional fee
arrangements.
ZEK litigators practice in a wide variety of substantive areas.
