Firm overview

Sills Cummis & Gross is one of New Jersey’s leading commercial litigation firms, known for senior-level advocacy, practical business judgment, and deep experience in sophisticated business disputes. It is the only New Jersey-based law firm to have been named Benchmark Litigation’s “New Jersey Firm of the Year” for the past ten years, reflecting sustained recognition for litigation excellence.

 

The Sills Cummis & Gross Litigation Department represents multinational corporations, financial institutions, and government bodies, often in complex and important matters. The Department’s attorneys are active in pre-trial, trial, and appellate matters in federal and state courts, as well as administrative litigation, grand jury investigations, and arbitrations. They pride themselves on advancing each client’s strategic business objectives, while at the same time striving to identify the key factual and legal issues that determine the final outcome of the litigation.

 

The Department does not see litigation as an end in itself, but rather as a means of achieving each client’s goals. This approach, together with a wealth of trial and appellate experience, places Sills Cummis at an advantage against adversaries both in litigating cases to verdict and in negotiating a favorable settlement, and also reduces, to the extent practicable, unnecessary and expensive pre-trial activity.

 
Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as civil trial attorneys:

  • Joseph L. Buckley
  • Jeffrey J. Greenbaum
