Philippe Lieberman came to law from a background in finance and international business. In the commercial and real estate litigation matters he now handles, that background gives him a distinct strategic advantage. He is uniquely able to cut through the complex financial issues that underlie many of these disputes.
In his law practice, he brings that savvy to his representation of clients in a range of business cases. Philippe's matters entail lender liability, financial fraud, business and partnership disputes, foreclosures, real estate and shareholders' derivative actions. He also litigates disputes that involve commercial transactions, fiduciary obligations, corporate governance and trade secrets. If it pertains to the operation and finance of a major commercial enterprise, Philippe handles it.
While Philippe's background in finance and business gives him an advantage as a litigator, it also works to the benefit of his clients. He understands that when a business becomes embroiled in litigation, it can win the battle but lose the war. He works closely with his clients to plan the end game – to consider the best business and practical outcome. As part of that, he makes sure that his clients fully understand the issues and stakes.
Fluent in French and a native of Europe, Philippe has an international clientele and frequently represents the interests of foreign investors, real estate developers, brokers, and businesses in South Florida. He also has experience with multi-country and multi-jurisdictional disputes.
