Restaurant, Retail & Hospitality

Representing Restaurants, Retail Stores and the Hospitality Field

Mintzer Sarowitz Zeris & Willis PLLC is proud of its long and strong relationship with its many clients in the retail, restaurant and hospitality fields.  We have defended thousands of cases for dozens of clients in these industries.  We work hand-in-hand with both insured clients and self-insureds and we consider them our partners in litigation as much as our clients.  Our clients range from single location “mom-and-pop” stores and restaurants to international hotel, restaurant and retail groups.  No matter the size, every client gets personal attention.

Because of our dedication to the industry, we have a deep knowledge and understanding of our clients’ needs.  We understand that the primary goal of the industry is to serve their customers; and that litigation is just a necessary evil that occurs sometimes.  Our goal is to help the clients navigate the court system so that cases can be resolved quickly and cost-effectively and their employees can get back to what they do best—serving meals, moving product, and filling hotel rooms.

Our attorneys have successfully defended our clients in areas of:

• Premises Liability
• Food-Borne Illness
• Product Liability
• Negligent Security
• Dram Shop and Liquor Liability

Outside of injury litigation, we have assisted our clients in:

• Real Estate Litigation
• Commercial Litigation
• Local Fire Codes and Regulatory Compliance
• Contractual Claims
• Indemnity and Recovery

Several members are active in local and national industry associations.
