Wrongful Death
Sex Crimes
In addition to traditional property liability work, our group has a wealth of experience representing municipalities. We employ defenses based upon various state and local laws and frequently take advantage of administrative hearing procedures as a method to give our clients an opportunity to evaluate their potential liability at an early stage. With that knowledge, we work together to decide whether it is in the client’s best interest to settle the matter or defend it.
Assault
Restraining Order
As a result of the tumultuous developments in the securities industry, there has been a surge in the number of industry disputes, including litigation arising out of movement of professionals from one firm to another. This type of litigation is particularly demanding, given the high stakes and the need for effective and immediate action. Our experience litigating in this area, combined with our in-depth knowledge of the substantive aspects of our clients’ business, means that we do not have to waste valuable time coming up to speed while a temporary restraining order dispute is pending.
Forgery
From an insurer’s perspective, claims asserted under fidelity bonds are inherently fact sensitive and require thorough investigation, precise coverage analysis and, in some cases, aggressive litigation. Our attorneys are well-qualified to provide these services and have resolved major claims arising from bookkeeper defalcations, commercial bribery, inventory theft, industrial sabotage, and expense account abuse. We have extensive experience in the financial services sector, where we have resolved claims involving so-called “ponzi schemes,” defaulted bank loans, unauthorized securities and currency trading, check forgery, and numerous other loss-generating transactions and events.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Successful business owners and management know that today’s fast-paced and competitive business environment invariably leads to situations where they must take decisive action to protect their legal rights through litigation. They also know that litigation often comes with a steep price, not only in terms of hard dollars and cents, but also in terms of the time and internal resources that must be devoted to the defense or prosecution of a lawsuit, as well as the potential reputational risks associated with a public airing of commercial disputes. Given the stakes, selecting the right law firm to guide them through the litigation process is among the most important decisions faced by companies and individuals. Whether defending our clients against lawsuits arising out of business disputes, or prosecuting claims against others, Winget, Spadafora & Schwartzberg provides its clients with the experience, knowledge and personal attention necessary to evaluate the merits of any existing or potential claims and to develop and implement an effective litigation plan.
Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property
Our attorneys call upon substantial experience and skill in the litigation, arbitration and resolution of intellectual property disputes. We employ state-of-the-art technology at all stages of a dispute to ensure that our clients' interests are protected and that they remain well informed.
Unfair Competition
Our attorneys have litigated numerous cases involving inter-industry disputes, including claims of “raiding,” violations of non-compete/non-solicitation agreements, unfair competition, tortious interference, defamation and disparagement, and misappropriation of trade secrets. These cases are litigated in FINRA arbitration as well as in federal and state courts, and may involve breach of contract claims as well as claims premised upon common-law theories even where no contract is present. Depending on the circumstances of each individual case, we employ a combination of litigation and negotiation strategies in an effort to obtain timely and cost-effective results for our clients.

Wrongful Termination
Our lawyers represent employers in all phases of litigation in state and federal courts and administrative agencies. We regularly appear before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and various state and local fair employment practices agencies in response to administrative charges of discrimination. Our practice includes preparation of position statements, appearances at fact finding conferences and hearings, as well as participation in alternative dispute resolution including mediation and arbitration. For our corporate clients, we also prosecute claims against former employees for violation of non-compete agreements, breach of fiduciary duties, and misappropriation of trade secrets. Our broad experience enables us to handle a wide array of employment claims filed against our clients including civil rights and discrimination claims, wrongful discharge, employment torts, whistleblower, free speech and emotional distress claims.
Employment Discrimination
The employment relationship is governed by an array of conflicting and confusing statutes and regulations that apply to almost every aspect of the employment relationship. These regulations vary from state to state and industry to industry leaving employers vulnerable to innocent mistakes. Winget, Spadafora & Schwartzberg’s Labor and Employment practice group understands the complex regulations governing employers and aims to prevent them from suffering the expense of mistakes and, when necessary, limiting the cost and exposure of litigation. The firm represents employers in a variety of industries with respect to all workplace matters. Our clients are local and national and turn to us for counseling on a wide array of issues from weathering the economic downturn to enforcing their own rights in the employment relationship. We appear on behalf of clients before federal, state and local courts and agencies in matters involving traditional labor relations, wage and hour issues, employment contract disputes and employment discrimination claims. By offering a full array of legal services to employers, we are able to build trust with our clients and represent them with all their employment related needs.
Employment Contract
Our commercial litigation group has represented companies and individuals in lawsuits in various state and federal courts involving claims for: breach of contract; fraud and fraudulent inducement; unfair competition; misappropriation of trade secrets and proprietary information; tortious interference with contractual relations; injunctive relief and equitable remedies in matters relating to partnership and shareholder disputes; employment agreements; investment banking disputes; finder’s and broker’s fees; corporate acquisitions and divestitures; commercial leases; equity and debt investments; and various other commercial disputes. We also have extensive experience resolving cases through more cost-effective methods such as commercial arbitration and mediation.
Employment Litigation
Non-compete Agreement
Our lawyers advise clients on a wide range of employment matters, including compliance with wage laws, such as the Equal Pay Act, Lilly Ledbetter Act, FLSA and discrimination laws such as Title VII, ADA, PDA, and ADEA. We actively advise clients as to sexual harassment policies, employee training and review of handbooks and human resources policies. We also advise our clients with respect to reductions in force, whistleblower protection, employment contracts, non-compete agreements and policies regarding drug testing, benefit continuation, family and medical leave, maternity, personnel files and employee references

We have successfully defended attorneys in both state and federal courts against accusations of: failing to protect copyright, patent and trademark rights; failing to procure adequate title insurance for real estate transactions; failing to adequately detect and evaluate title defects in real property; using improper trial and settlement tactics; failing to timely commence actions within the applicable statutes of limitation; failing to comply with procedural requirements; failing to properly document transactions; failing to properly prepare testamentary instruments violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act; and violations of Unfair Trade Practices Acts.
Property Damage

Medical Malpractice
We are experienced in defending claims against medical facilities including surgical centers, clinics, nursing care facilities, and medical professionals including physicians, dentists, psychologists, therapists, estheticians, nurses, home health care attendants, paraprofessionals and other health care and quasi-health care providers. Our practice is to aggressively defend our clients against claims of medical malpractice and general negligence involving serious injuries or death by preparing each case for trial from the outset while also focusing efforts on dismissals and potential settlement opportunities. We ensure our clients are well informed of all developments, issues and legal strategies by constant communication and status updates throughout the pendency of a matter. Additionally, our coverage team is experienced in addressing the various coverage issues that may arise in connection with the handling of these claims.
