Introduction
Zachary Osinski is an associate in Nixon Peabody’s Litigation group. He represents commercial entities in a wide range of matters across a variety of industries.
My focus
My practice focuses on helping clients navigate ongoing or potential disputes and litigation. I am involved in all aspects of the litigation process, and I provide efficient and proactive client service by finding creative and cost effective ways to manage disputes, and I also advise clients on how to avoid potential disputes all together.
I have litigated cases in both federal and state courts involving a broad spectrum of complex business disputes, including breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, business torts, construction litigation, real property disputes, corporate governance disputes, class actions, and enforcement of non-compete agreements, to name a few. I am experienced in responding to temporary restraining orders (TROs), orders to show cause, government or regulatory subpoenas, and most other litigation devices. While I focus primarily in Corporate Governance, Title IX, and Labor and Employment disputes, I have a broad experience and skillset that allows me to provide effective representation for most types of matters.
Looking ahead
Cybersecurity and data privacy issues will continue to rise, creating new risks and potential liabilities. As costs can be substantial, particularly if it involves highly technical issues, third-party litigation funds will become a significant resource in pursuing all types of claims.
