Sal Padula recognizes that while litigation can be necessary, it should rarely be a first choice for resolving business disputes. Sal takes a dual-track approach to cases, combining assertive advocacy with outside-the-box exploration of non-litigation dispute resolution. His focus is always on achieving clients’ objectives efficiently and effectively.
Sal has experience representing both plaintiffs and defendants across a broad range of civil matters, including breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, trade secrets misappropriation, partnership dissolution, and shareholder disputes. He has negotiated partnership dissolutions, stock purchase agreements, and commercial leases. Sal stays focused on prompt case resolution, particularly through negotiation or early dispositive motion whenever possible.
Prior to joining CGS3, Sal was a member of the commercial litigation group at Boyd Law, APC, a boutique litigation firm. He has provided pro bono consulting services on criminal defense and civil rights matters. Before embarking on his legal career, he was a realtor and property manager.
