NYC-area PI lawyers, who do you think is the best plaintiff-side lawyer or firm in the area? Who would you want to handle a major PI or product case for a friend? (Assuming, of course, that you couldn't handle it yourself.)

I’ve worked for a few already named and currently work at a different one in the city. All depends on value and type, but most of the top ones are all on the same tier and can get good results. If it’s anything with 7-8 figure potential, run to Block OToole

Thanks so much for responding. I’m new to this site, so it won’t let me PM you, but I’d really like to briefly discuss your experience if you’re willing. It would be hugely helpful to get even just a few minutes of your time.

Question: I have a client who started a restaurant. He leased the land and bought shipping containers where he spent money contracting out to turn them into bars. I’m having a tough time determining how to depreciate this! First thought was leasehold but he’s not making improvements to a structure...he owns the structure! But nonresidential real estate at 27.5 years doesn’t make sense either as it’s not a brick and mortar building. Curious on others thoughts! TIA

What’s a good LA or NY business litigation firm and salary to expect? I’m a 2yr with quite frankly a lot of experience across civ rights, PI, excessive force, wrongful death, employment defense, K dispute, corp. structure dispute, professional licensure. Write every kind of brief, appeals, argue motions, take depos. Am the only associate working directly under partner on all cases. In house or M&A/Real Estate Transactional are likely the end goal but want to get the litigation out of me first.
