About
We are “big firm” alumni, but we do things differently. We are veteran, “hands on” lawyers; if you hire us, you get us. There won’t be a younger lawyer taking the case over after the initial client conference. We’d appreciate the opportunity to discuss your case with you.
Over the past three decades, Carroll & Weiss lawyers have represented some of the most recognized names in American business. For many of these companies, our work was not a single case, but instead a long representation with significant responsibilities. As “go to” lawyers, we have worked in a variety of substantive legal areas and have served our clients in numerous national trial counsel and national coordinating counsel roles.
Our litigation and trial expertise is broad and deep:
