LOCAL COUNSEL

PinilisHalpern, LLP serves as local counsel to attorneys throughout the country.  We assist attorneys, from solo practioners to large multi-national firms, with matters pending in New Jersey.

 

Must I live in New Jersey?

Unfortunately, not every state (in fact very few) has a trial certification program.  Thus, if you need a referral to a lawyer outside the State of New Jersey, CertifiedCivilTrialAttorney.com cannot promise to refer you to a Board certified lawyer.  However, CertifiedCivilTrialAttorney.com is owned and operated by trial lawyers who are themselves certified by the New Jersey Supreme Court as civil trial attorneys. Over the years these attorneys have developed relationships with lawyers all over the United States.  Accordingly, if you require a lawyer that is not in New Jersey, we will find you well qualified litigation counsel.
