Unfair Competition

Employment Litigation
Victoria R. Pekerman is a member of the firm’s Commercial Litigation Department. Her legal experience includes such areas as commercial business litigation, estate litigation, partnership and shareholder disputes, insurance coverage and employment disputes.
Non-compete Agreement
I worked with Victoria in a complex case in federal court involving disputes over ownership of intellectual property and violations of non-compete agreements. She is a very capable attorney, and was well versed in the federal rules of civil procedure and the local rules of the federal court in New Jersey where the case was venued. It was a pleasure to work with her. Victoria and her firm acted as local counsel and assisted our firm in representing the Plaintiff in the litigation, which resulted in a settlement in favor of our mutual client.

His practice encompasses all areas of commercial litigation, real estate litigation, complex foreclosures, construction and insolvency matters in both the state and federal courts. David has appeared extensively in the state courts of New Jersey and New York, as well as the United States District Court and Bankruptcy Court in New Jersey. He has litigated all types of business disputes and bankruptcy court adversary proceedings for the District of New Jersey.
Real Estate Transactions
We handle a variety of matters including complex Business Litigation, Partnership and Shareholder Disputes, Trusts, Estates and Wealth Management, Appellate Practice, Municipal Law and Land Use, Taxation (corporate and individual), Bankruptcy and Creditor’s Rights, Cannabis Law, Commercial Real Estate transactions, and more.
Eminent Domain
When the state or one of its municipalities takes private property, New Jersey’s law of eminent domain requires that just compensation, or the fair market value of the property as of the date of taking, be paid to the property owner. Fair market value under New Jersey law is determined by the price to which a willing and knowledgeable buyer and willing and knowledgeable seller would agree, neither being under any compulsion to act. When considering the question of fair market value, the property’s “highest and best use” or the use that produces the highest value—provided it can be legally and physically achieved—is taken into account. Under certain circumstances, the highest and best use asserted by a landowner may be premised on a prospective zoning change, but only if there is a reasonable probability that such zoning change could be achieved.
Land Use and Zoning
The experience of the attorneys at ShapiroCroland in the area of local government law spans more than forty years. During that time, the firm and its members have acted as general and special counsel to municipalities and planning and zoning boards. Our experience is equally expansive in the representation of local government officials and boards in matters relating to their public charge.

Personal Injury
Victoria Pekerman is sharp and focused and she gets it! Victoria helped my family to successfully defend a severely inflated personal injury suit which could have completely wiped out the family’s assets. She has always been an advocate and advisor on many other legal issues ranging from personal to business. She is sensitive to the people involved – yet is firm and steadfast and the results speak for themselves with 100% success!

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
ShapiroCroland Trusts, Estates and Wealth Management Department has a long-standing history of providing quality estate planning services to our clients, their families and their businesses. Our clients include entrepreneurs, executives, corporations, partnerships, private foundations, charitable organizations, families and high net-worth individuals. Our lawyers are committed to coordinating all aspects of our clients’ financial planning, which includes asset protection planning. In so doing, we work closely with clients, as well as their accountants, investment advisors and financial planners, to develop personalized plans that incorporate their values and goals, including wealth preservation, asset protection planning, international planning and the resolution of potential family conflicts. At the same time, we strive to minimize gift, estate, generation skipping and other taxes.
Wills

Examples of such matters include will contests, construction and interpretation proceedings for wills or trust agreements, objections to accountings, administration and removal of fiduciaries.

Trusts
Our Trusts, Estates and Wealth Management attorneys also provide succession planning services to owners of closely held business as a means of protecting family wealth. We regularly restructure businesses to place our business owner-clients and their families in the most tax advantageous position. These services extend not only to the family business, but to business investments with unrelated partners and co-shareholders. We work to ensure that our clients’ heirs receive the same return on the business investment that our owner-client received during his or her lifetime. In order to achieve these results for our clients, our attorneys implement creative long-term business succession plans to minimize the adverse effects of death taxes. Such plans may include the creation of partnerships, long-term irrevocable trusts, the use of shareholder agreements and/or the acquisition of insurance.

Our attorneys incorporate a myriad of planning vehicles to design a personalized, integrated plan, including wills, trusts, family partnerships and limited liability companies.
