Welcome

BerlikLaw is a results-driven, AV-rated law firm specializing in business litigation and the resolution of business disputes. With offices in Northern Virginia and the District of Columbia, the firm handles complex commercial litigation, intellectual property disputes, employment matters, business torts, and all forms of civil litigation. The firm offers counseling and advice on ways to avoid litigation, including innovative legal solutions and strategies, but when your business is left with no reasonable alternative but to pursue or defend litigation or arbitration, BerlikLaw is the firm you want in your corner.

As a small litigation boutique with strong ties to the legal community and the community at large, the attorneys at BerlikLaw focus on assisting individuals and businesses based in Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and Northern Virginia, but are frequently involved in cases pending in other Virginia jurisdictions such as Alexandria, Richmond and Norfolk. It has established offices in Reston, Tysons Corner, Leesburg, and the District of Columbia, at locations convenient to the area's courthouses, Dulles International Airport, and the majority of the firm's clients.

For nearly 15 years, litigator and firm founder Lee Berlik has been providing effective representation for individuals and business owners throughout Virginia.  Having spent most of his career with large law firms employing 500-750 attorneys, Lee decided he could offer his clients increased responsiveness, greater value, and better service by opening his own law firm devoted to meeting client objectives and achieving results at a minimum of expense. That firm is BerlikLaw.

Lee has earned a reputation as not only a highly effective Virginia trial lawyer, but one who understands and appreciates the need for efficiency and litigation cost control. The firm keeps its overhead low by, among other things, using highly skilled, experienced contract attorneys, allowing the firm to strategically manage its fluctuating caseload without the need to pay inflated salaries. Such practices allow the firm's attorneys to charge rates that are but a tiny fraction of what these same attorneys charged at their former "Big Law" firms.

Our lawyers appear regularly in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (a highly efficient federal court known as the "rocket docket"), as well as in circuit courts throughout Virginia, both as lead counsel and local counsel. Our diverse practice includes breach-of-contract disputes, trademark infringement litigation, copyright enforcement, trade-secret protection, defamation, fraud, real estate litigation, discrimination claims, and many other areas that commonly affect small and large business alike.

Here at BerlikLaw, we are committed to protecting the interests of our clients with diligence, promptness, and zeal.  Give us a call, and get the representation your business needs without breaking the bank.
