Mr. Epstein concentrates his practice in civil litigation in state and federal courts, with special emphasis on litigating claims and giving transactional advice in the areas of employment rights, civil rights, and constitutional torts. He also represents professionals and organizations of professionals in the many unique problems that arise in the practice of law, medicine, accounting, insurance, real estate, stockbrokerage, pharmacy, and architecture.

In the context of significant litigation in the employment law area, he is well known for his participation in high profile litigation for individuals and corporate entities (including the representation of a young, HIV-positive attorney against a prestigious Philadelphia law firm that received national attention because of the award-winning film Philadelphia starring Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington and daily coverage of the trial by Court TV and Cable News Network) and his frequent representation of local and national sports figures, broadcast personalities, and officers and directors of large national corporations who require his service in connection with litigation and negotiation of their contracts of employment.
Mr. Epstein was also the founder and President/CEO of JUDICATE, The National Private Court System, a company coordinating private dispute resolution services for approximately 700 former judges throughout the United States and its territories.
