A graduate of Cornell Law School with over 35 years of experience, F. Charles Dayter serves as lead trial counsel, strategist, and negotiator in complex, high-profile, and high-stakes civil litigation and transactional matters including those involving contract disputes, personal injury, construction accidents, intellectual property, health care, business divorce, energy, fraud, consumer deception, sexual harassment, entertainment, land use, and commercial leasing. He also represents major corporations under investigation by the United States Department of Justice, and the Office of the Attorney General of the State of New York. Mr. Dayter has been on the leading edge of regulatory and legal issues concerning intellectual property, traumatic brain injuries, health care, entertainment, energy, advertising, and commercial leasing. He was previously a partner with prominent New York law firms, where he counseled and represented individuals, corporations, and executives in disputes involving fraud, personal injury, oil and gas leasing, defamation, advertising, non-competition agreements, and unfair and deceptive business practices. He has collaborated with corporate officers, directors, in-house counsel, and expert witnesses, and has tried cases, and briefed and argued motions and appeals, resulting in significant published opinions.

Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

Two representative cases that I've recently handled are: (1) successfully obtaining a large monetary award for a client who suffered a traumatic brain injury from a car accident; and (2) successfully defending a business owner against a claim of ownership to over 48% of his business by a former, disgruntled employee.

How did you build a successful practice?

My successful law practice has been built on perseverance, experience, attention to detail, and never-ending curiosity and preparation.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

Clients should look for attorneys who return their phone calls in a timely manner, and then listen. The attorneys should possess experience, yet be able to explain the law in simple, understandable language.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?

I can provide an explanation of the law, and the procedural steps that are likely to take place in simple, clear language. I am willing to share my thoughts on both the positive and negative aspects of a potential case.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?

Drive, experience, preparation, and caring differentiate me from other lawyers in the community.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?

The most rewarding aspect of my job is fighting for clients that have been wronged or find themselves in a tough legal predicament.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

In addition to practicing law, I ski, golf, play guitar, and am an exercise enthusiast.

Are you involved in your community?

Yes. I am an active member of several local chambers of commerce.
