Mandelbaum Salsburg attorneys Ronald D. Coleman and Brian M. Block prevailed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which affirmed the district court's preliminary injunction in favor of their client, a leading telecommunications engineering firm.

In crafting that relief, the district court employed a time-honored judicial remedy that maintained the status quo. The district court's decision gave our client a fighting chance to preserve its longstanding relationships, while allowing it to pursue its claims against its former employees....

Craig W. Alexander, a partner in the firm's Real Estate Department, closed a million dollar mortgage loan on behalf of a prominent investor for a commercial building in Essex County, New Jersey. Mandelbaum Salsburg was able to leverage its relationships to assist the client in acquiring the property in an unusual transaction commencing with the purchase of the existing debt, financed by a hard money lender introduced to the client by the firm. The client acquired title to the property after the firm structured a "deed in lieu of" transaction made possible by the firm's relationship with the lender and title company, followed by a refinancing with an institutional lender also introduced to the lender by the firm....
Member Joe Peters and Associate Ethan Wells earned a major victory on behalf of a client who was stabbed in a New Brunswick, New Jersey bar. The client sustained multiple traumatic injuries to his leg, abdomen, pancreas, and spleen. Peters and Wells aggressively advocated for our client during the mediation and were able to prove that the bar in question had an obligation to provide security at its establishment in a reasonable manner. The bar also failed to successfully train and supervise its security personnel. Therefore, the bar was fully liable for plaintiff's injuries. The mediation ended when the defendant's agreed to compensate the plaintiff in full. This is just one of the many satisfying verdicts our personal injury attorneys have achieved for plaintiffs....
