Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
We offer a full range of services to our corporate and securities clients including corporate governance, private placements, public offering of equity and debt securities, securities law compliance and reporting, bank financing, asset sales and acquisitions, and corporate restructuring.
Mergers and Acquisitions
The professionals of Silverman Shin & Byrne have extensive experience in a full range of merger and acquisition transactions of all sizes. The breadth of our practice areas and multi-industry representations allows us to provide a client with resources unmatched by our peers, while our intimate understanding of a client’s business enables us to focus on achieving the unique goals and needs of our client in a pragmatic way.
Business Disputes
Unfair Competition

Workers Compensation
Our collective experience in handling matters involving automotive liability, construction defect and accident claims, insurance coverage, premises liability, professional liability, municipal liability, workers compensation and cyber liability allows us to provide a level of predictability as to the outcome of claims.
Employment Contract
Employment Litigation
Litigation drains resources. When a dispute or claim does arise despite best avoidance practices, early evaluation and cost containment are crucial. We defend claims vigorously, and we do so in a way that balances practical business needs without compromising our aggressive approach and integrity. We are strong proponents of alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation, as a valuable tool of early resolution. We appear routinely in federal and state courts at the trial and appellate levels, and also before federal and state administrative fair employment practice agencies, including the EEOC, NYSDHR, NYCCHR, and NJDCR. While a very small percentage of employment practices claims survive the gauntlet of proportionate tailored discovery, early resolution efforts, and (if necessary) well-timed motions, the seasoned trial lawyers of Silverman Shin & Byrne collectively bring decades of trial experience to the table to defend a case at trial. Our broad range of experience defending Employment Practices Liability (EPL) and other employment claims includes...
Non-compete Agreement
Preventive compliance benefits a business through decreased claims and increased employee morale and retention. To assist with compliance, we provide counseling for management on day-to-day issues, including hiring decisions, disciplinary actions, promotions, demotions, compensation, leaves of absence, workplace complaints, harassment, restructuring, wage/hour pay and classifications, employee agreements, independent contractor agreements, noncompete agreements, protection of proprietary information, and separations from employment. We also prepare policies and handbooks, conduct audits of best practices, and offer guidance and training for internal workplace investigations by human resources or supervisory personnel.
Severance Agreement

Premises Liability
Construction Litigation
The construction practice group at Silverman Shin & Byrne has represented real estate developers, owners, construction managers, contractors and subcontractors as well as construction professionals, including architects and engineers. We also directly represent and advise insurance carriers in all manner of construction accident claims, including claims under the New York Labor Law and construction defects litigation. Along with providing the efficient defense with respect to the liability and damages, we are adept at analyzing and enforcing the contractual relationships between parties in order to extricate our clients from litigated claims at the earliest possible opportunity.
Real Estate Transactions
