PRIVATE EQUITY LITIGATION

Our litigation attorneys have recovered multi-million dollar settlements and judgments and defended claims for private equity firms and their portfolio companies.  Our practice includes private equity buyers for breaches of representations and warranties and other breaches of purchase agreements or fraud by sellers.  We have also handled defense of private equity firms in connection with sales of portfolio companies.  We have also handled portfolio company litigation of all manner and variety, including insurance recovery claims, licensing and IP disputes and similar types of litigation.

BNSK has proven a good fit for private equity based litigation claims because BNSK provides highly qualified and skilled lawyers private equity firms are used to dealing with, but with leaner staffing, more reasonable rates and greater efficiency to allow for litigation to be successfully concluded both effectively and more efficiently.

At BNSK, our litigators have large firm backgrounds, and bring that experience to a focused, boutique firm environment. The result is a personalized client experience, supported by a track record of successful resolutions.
