Law Firm Representing Clients Nationwide Who Receive Subpoenas

You may have received a subpoena issued from a state or federal court. Or perhaps you have received a subpoena or civil investigative demand from a government agency. A response is mandatory and so you should contact a lawyer who can assist you. It is never a good idea to completely ignore a subpoena, even if they concern matters that you believe do not involve you.

A subpoena is just a formal request for evidence or for testimony. It could be part of a lawsuit to which you are not a party. In that event, one of the sides of the lawsuit thinks that you have evidence that may be useful to the case.

A subpoena, however, could also be part of a government investigation. In that event, a lawyer should work with you to defend your interests.

Newman Litigation has represented numerous clients who receive subpoenas and civil investigative demands involving private lawsuits and government investigations.  The government matters the firm's lawyers have worked on have involved the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service, the Federal Trade Commission, the Commodities Futures Trading Commission, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Department of Justice.

Newman Litigation attorneys routinely help clients:

• Object to overbroad subpoenas;

• Gather and produce documents;

• Prepare for and testify at depositions and trials;

• Negotiate for compensation for their compliance with a private litigation subpoena; and

• Ensure the process goes as smoothly as possible.

Newman Litigation's founder, Will Newman, has nearly two decades of experience assisting clients in the discovery and investigation process.  While discovery can often be expensive and burdensome, Will aims to be efficient in helping clients to comply with subpoenas issued by courts throughout the United States.

Some subpoenas require testimony at a deposition. Newman Litigation can prepare witnesses to testify at a deposition and defend them while the deposition is taking place. Other subpoenas require the production of text messages and emails. Newman Litigation attorneys regularly work with clients to gather and produce these documents, handling the technical aspects of the production as well as the legal objections.
