ANNOUNCEMENT

JFB Legal is now
Baughman Kroup Bosse

From its founding in 2020 by Jack Baughman, JFB Legal quickly established itself as an elite litigation boutique and a trusted advisor to clients with the most complex civil, criminal, and regulatory matters. The firm’s re-launch as Baughman Kroup Bosse sees Partners George Kroup and Andrew Bosse join Jack Baughman on the letterhead. Although the firm has a new name, what won’t change is its level of service. Baughman Kroup Bosse will continue to be Trial-Tested and Client-Driven into 2024 and beyond.

The Baughman Kroup Bosse team has a wealth of experience handling clients’ most difficult contested matters. We have appeared in courts nationwide and worldwide and specialize in finding solutions for the most complicated civil, regulatory, and criminal matters.

  • Richard Cooke Joins BKB

    We are excited to announce that Richard Cooke has joined Baughman Kroup Bosse as a counsel. Richard has more than 25 years' experience as a trial and appellate lawyer at the Department of Justice and the United States Attorney's Office. Richard will work out of the Virginia office and handle complex criminal and commercial litigation in State and federal Court. We are thrilled to have Richard on the team.

  • BKB Celebrates Four Years

    BKB is excited to celebrate four years of providing exceptional service, resolving complex civil, regulatory and criminal matters for its clients, nationwide and overseas. BKB has evolved from a single attorney law firm to a boutique with 18 attorneys, and still growing. We are proud of our firm’s history and are excited for the future.

  • BKB Wins at Trial for Lightstone

    For 10 years, our client Lightstone has been defending itself from a supposed investor’s claim that his companies had a 25% “partnership” interest in a Times Square hotel Lightstone developed. After nearly a decade of litigation, the case finally reached trial in April. Yesterday Justice Cohen of the New York Supreme Court issued his decision in favor of Lightstone: there is no partnership and never was. This is a tremendous victory for our client, and it was a pleasure to represent them at trial.
