Evan, a litigation partner, describes himself as a “death and dirt” lawyer. He represents clients in trusts and estate disputes, which often come to a head after a family member has died, and in real estate litigation, where clients dispute who owns and controls access to "dirt." Because the two often intersect, as people will gift land (or attempt to do so) via their wills or trusts, Evan’s distinct capabilities prove particularly beneficial.
Peter is a litigation attorney who has successfully represented clients across a broad range of matters, including trusts and estates disputes, shareholder disputes in closely held corporations, business torts, and breaches of contract. Prior to law school, Peter received a Ph.D. from Cornell University in Islamic law. His dissertation focused on the legal development of the Islamic trust or waqf during the first centuries of Islam.
