| Alternative Dispute Resolution Even with superior legal representation, most clients find litigation to be a painful and time consuming experience. However, some disputes can be resolved without litigation by using one of several alternative methods of dispute resolution, such as facilitation, mediation, and arbitration. We are experienced in arbitration, facilitation, and mediation procedures in domestic and international disputes. Several of our attorneys are certified mediators. Using these methods, our attorneys have successfully resolved business, complex commercial, employment, and family law disputes – saving our clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees. | |

| Law Enforcement Defense | |
| Law Enforcement Defense and Litigation Each day, law enforcement officers put their lives and reputations on the line to protect the public. Doing so often requires them to make split-second decisions and judgments under stressful, emotionally charged and potentially dangerous situations – while at the same time acting within the constraints of the U.S. Constitution, other state and federal laws, and internal department policies. With increased public scrutiny over police officers and police departments, the number of civil lawsuits filed against municipalities and police officers are on the rise. These cases are often driven by a belief that negative media coverage of the police and the influence of organizations that protest police activities will make juries more favorable to plaintiffs. Outside of litigation, our team counsels police agencies on policy and procedure matters. | |

| Nonprofit Law he members of Berry Moorman’s Nonprofit Group began and continue their association with nonprofit organizations by volunteering their time to the organizations of their choice.
