Nissenbaum Law Group, LLC

Fraud
Advising clients with regard to the requirements of the NJ Consumer Fraud Act (N.J.S.A. 56:8-1 et seq.), including the related NJ Contractor Registration Act (N.J.S.A. 56:8-136 et seq.);
Theft
Restraining Order
Many commercial disputes relate to items other than damages, such as the need to compel a business to take action or refrain from taking action. This typically involves an allegation that irreparable harm will result if an injunction is not granted and sometimes can include an additional claim for the entry of a temporary restraining order. Examples include
Internet Crimes
The Nissenbaum Law Group’s Internet law clients range from true e-commerce websites to brick-and-mortar companies that utilize a website solely as an adjunct. The firm handles a range of Internet law matters, such as drafting electronic contracts, protecting against universal jurisdiction, addressing privacy issues and attending to the Internet’s distinct intellectual property concerns related to copyright and trademark.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
The Nissenbaum Law Group has an extensive commercial transactional practice; what is generally referred to as “corporate law.” These include matters not only in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Texas, but also in many other states across the country. The firm’s approach is straightforward: it strives to accurately and thoroughly prepare the underlying documentation while keeping in mind the larger context, such as the practicalities for the client of contract compliance and regulatory enforcement; the limitations of financing facilities; and the legal issues posed by the action of competitors in the client’s industry. In short, the firm strives to view the transaction from all sides.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Commercial Contracts & Transactional Matters: One of the easiest ways to avoid lawsuits is by drafting comprehensive commercial contracts and agreements. The firm’s New York, NY attorneys handle a variety of transactional matters on a regular basis, including mergers and acquisitions, commercial leases, employment law and general contract drafting.
Business Disputes
The backbone of a business law practice is litigating breach of contract disputes. The law provides clear remedies for individuals or entities that enter into an agreement to provide goods, services or other items and don’t deliver. The range of potential agreements that might be the subject of a lawsuit includes such items as
Business Transactions
The firm’s attorneys focus their practice in the area of commercial transactions and litigation. In order to maintain the appropriate standard of practice, the firm has developed an internal system of professional development and training that supplements the basic continuing legal education requirements of the various state bars in which our attorneys are licensed.

Trade Secrets
In many cases, a company’s intellectual property represents the lion’s share of its underlying value. Examples of industries in which this is particularly true are (a) digital and high tech, (b) pharmaceutical, (c) entertainment and (d) licensing. Each of those types of business clients requires our firm to provide a careful analysis of the necessary copyright and trademark filings; the appropriate agreements that need to be drafted to provide trade secret protection; and the extent to which the company’s intellectual property affects its valuation. At the outset, it is essential that a law firm review its clients’ copyrights, trademarks and intellectual property agreements to assess whether there are adjustments that need to be made.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property litigation is generally brought in federal court because trademark and copyright filings are typically enforced under federal law. That means an intellectual property dispute in New York and an intellectual property dispute in Dallas would both be brought in a federal court, i.e., the federal district court for that district. While the court involved would be different geographically, i.e., the intellectual property dispute would be brought in the federal court serving that local district, the general procedures and law would be relatively similar. The reason for this is that since intellectual property is utilized across state borders, it would not typically be helpful to allow individual states to create unique principles of law relating to the enforcement of federal copyrights, trademarks and so forth. Of course, there is a counterpoint to this: the common law of each state can set forth intellectual property protections that parallel those of the federal scheme. However, federal registration of copyrights and trademarks generally results in enhanced damages for infringement (see below); therefore, it would be unusual for a business owner to rely on state law for such protection.
Unfair Competition

Employment Contract
Epic Systems Corp v. Lewis, 584 U.S. (2018). The opinion upheld the enforceability of mandatory arbitration and class action waiver clauses in employment contracts. The text of the case can be found at the following link: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/17pdf/16-285_q8l1.pdf
Employment Litigation
A commercial law firm must have the breadth of experience to handle a wide-variety of employment disputes. This runs the gamut from discrimination to whistle blowing; from payroll withholding issues to contracts of employment. The Nissenbaum Law Group has a team of lawyers capable of handling such matters.
Non-compete Agreement
Drafting, negotiating and enforcing Employment agreements, severance agreements, Non-compete agreements, restrictive covenant agreements and independent contractor agreements;
Severance Agreement
The firm has experience in drafting a variety of legal documents, including business purchase or sale agreements, employment and severance agreements, trade secret agreements and assignment of intellectual property agreements, click-through e-commerce agreements and so forth. The firm seeks to draft its contracts so that they comport with the clients’ particular aims and objectives. This may mean that in certain instances, a contract for the same transaction might be drafted as a one to two page document, and in others, might be a dozen pages long. The idea is not so much to focus on how long the contract ends up being, but whether a shorter or longer contract will better serve that client in that particular transaction.
Sexual Harassment

Real Estate Litigation
Having said all of that, it is also true that if the parties can agree on the outlines of a transaction involving the purchase of an interest in—or sale of—commercial real estate, that may be a way of heading off a dispute before it starts. Our attorneys are experienced in a wide range of transactional matters concerning the ownership and interest in commercial real estate, from leases to liens, from sale agreements to mortgages, from easements to environmental issues. With law offices in NY, NJ, PA, and TX, we are prepared to defend commercial real estate matters in wide range of locations.
Construction Litigation
One of the unique aspects of construction law is the manner in which contract terms are often subject to such stringent regulation. A commercial law firm must be able to handle complex construction litigation and arbitration matters in the context of this regulatory framework.
Real Estate Transactions
Commercial real estate transactions are an integral part of a business law practice. The firm not only handles commercial real estate, lease and sale transactions, but also the environmental, land use and regulatory issues that are often bound up in those transactions. The firm also represents condominium associations and has broad experience in the unique aspects of the law that relate to such clients.
Eminent Domain
Our firm handles commercial real estate matters such as drafting and negotiating sale agreements, commercial leases; UCC financing statements and mortgages; addressing environmental issues, defending foreclosure, condemnation and eminent domain actions, municipal zoning and planning board issues; commercial landlord-tenant disputes, construction lawsuits and contracts, filing construction liens and/or defending against such filings, and representing condominium associations in matters such as collection of unpaid assessments, vendor agreements and board of trustee documentation.
Easement
Land Use and Zoning
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
It is important to have a dialogue with the tenant at the earliest possible point when the rent is overdue. After all, there is the possibility that the tenant simply made a bookkeeping error or the mail was incorrectly addressed or some other innocuous event occurred that resulted in the rent not being paid. If the tenant is having difficulty meeting its financial obligations, or there is a tangible reason why they feel they should be withholding the rent, that can often be resolved directly between the landlord and tenant. If not, it may make sense to bring in a mediator to resolve the issue. Likewise, if it becomes obvious that the matter is not simply going to be consensually resolved, the lease should have a list of remedies that are available that may include interest, attorneys’ fees and rights upon eviction. All of that should be factored in when deciding whether the situation has deteriorated to the point that a lawsuit needs to be filed.

Wills
Business succession planning is more important than ever. It is absolutely critical that a business owner’s wishes—whether included in a corporate resolution, buy/sell agreement or even last will and testament—address the commercial law issues inherent in determining who will run the business after they are gone. The Nissenbaum Law Group provides business succession planning, involving such items as...

Bankruptcy
Foreclosure
Tax Law
The Nissenbaum Law Group has a robust ethics practice that spans Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey. The firm is well-suited to representing clients before the OPR in defense of investigations or complaints regarding violations of Circular 230 that could lead to the practitioner’s potential censure, suspension, or disbarment. Since the practitioner’s ability to handle tax matters going forward could be impaired or eliminated in that way, so the stakes are exceedingly high. Given the fact that Circular 230 is patterned after the Rules of Professional Conduct governing attorneys—while at the same time admittedly incorporating a number of significant distinctions from the RPCs—our law firm welcomes the opportunity to defend practitioners involved in such investigations or hearings.
Debt Collection
Our firm’s commercial litigation practice involves lawsuits in federal and state courts throughout the country. These include claims for breach of contract, fraud, business interference, construction, commercial landlord-tenant, debt collection, intellectual property infringement and injunctions relating to all of the above. Our litigation practice is not limited by state. We are able to handle lawsuits in any jurisdiction, so long as the court admits us on a
