John J. Coughlin has been licensed to practice in New Jersey and Pennsylvania State
and Federal Courts since 1991. The majority of Mr. Coughlin’s practice has focused
on general litigation, with emphasis in commercial law and transactions. The
experience gained through litigating matters has also provided the insights necessary
to counsel clients as they enter into relationships, to gain advantage and avoid
litigation over misunderstandings later.
Before forming his own firm, Mr. Coughlin was a Partner in the trial Department of
Duane Morris, LLP, a full service international law firm where he spent 11 years
litigating a broad range of legal issues for clients as large as fortune 50 Companies
and as small as the single business owner or individual.
Mr. Coughlin formed his own law firm to reduce the cost of his services while
continuing to provide his clients with the level of skill and expertise found in
large corporate law firms. The reduced cost also allows for the expanded
representation of individual clients for a variety of legal needs.
