He assesses litigation risk, outlines options for settlement or continued litigation, and prepares filings that set out legal and factual narratives clearly. He also consults on procedural issues that affect the trajectory of a case, including motions practice and preservation of issues for appeal.
Outside of active filings, Newberg keeps abreast of developments in Michigan law and federal appellate decisions that affect the Sixth Circuit. That attention helps him advise clients on how recent rulings might influence case strategy. He is based at Kuiper Kraemer PC and handles matters originating in Michigan courts as well as proceedings taken to the Sixth Circuit. He currently practices at Kuiper Kraemer PC, where his work concentrates on matters in Michigan courts and in proceedings before the Sixth Circuit.
