Trial Practice & Administrative Law

Trial Practice
At Gamble Hartshorn, we know that not every dispute can be settled amicably and that people don’t always fulfill their contractual obligations. As a result, you or your business may discover that litigation or an alternative form of dispute resolution is required. Whatever the forum for resolution, our ultimate goal is always to help you resolve the dispute to your satisfaction. We are your advocate!

Administrative Law
We also know that professionals are not immune from rules and regulations promulgated by State Agencies and State Licensing Boards. We have experience representing professionals in licensing, harassment and disciplinary matters before various administrative agencies and we have addressed the various issues that confront peer review organizations.

Healthcare

We represent physicians, physician groups, non-hospital surgical centers, IRO and home health agencies, third party administrators and provider networks.  (We do not represent patients.)  We can help physicians incorporate their practices and comply with the Ohio professional corporation law; or we will help form limited liability organizations to help reduce their liability risk.

Estate Planning

Estate Planning; Succession Planning; Retirement Planning
Estate Planning, Succession and Retirement Planning are all very personal matters, and at Gamble Hartshorn, we treat them that way. We will help you organize your affairs so that you not only achieve your goals, but you achieve them in the most tax efficient way for you, your heirs and your other beneficiaries. 

Probate Administration; Probate Litigation
Upon the death of a loved one, our attorneys will guide you through the Probate estate administration process. Depending upon the size of the estate and the issues involved, this can be a very simple process or an extremely complex one. Gamble Hartshorn will get your started, guide you through the process, and help you or your executor complete the process in an economical, efficient manner.

Intellectual Property
If you have a business, no matter how small, you or your business owns some intellectual property. Intellectual property includes trade secrets, copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade names and service marks; and it may include processes and applications as well as tangible items. If your business has trade secrets, then you should act to protect them.
