Competition leading to litigation, the breakup of a small company, and routine efforts to navigate complex issues often involve the need for sophisticated and aggressive legal representation. Even in the appropriate pursuit of legitimate business goals, it is not unusual for businesses, large or small, to find themselves involved in a legal dispute. The dispute will typically fall withinunder the realm of what is known as civil litigation, which involves the court system or arbitration for adjudication.
From the plaintiff’s standpoint in a civil litigation matter, the objective is to remedy an injustice, force the honoring of an agreement, or to obtain monetary compensation for an injury or damage. On the opposite side, defendants in a civil litigation matter wish to vigorously protect their rights in opposing the plaintiff’s claims. Our firm routinely represents plaintiffs and defendants in business litigation, including small businesses, sole proprietorships, LLC’s, partnerships, shareholders, corporations, etc.
Business Litigation often includes the following types of cases:
- Breach of contract
- Business disputes
- Trade secrets
- Fraud
- Dissolution or breakup of a business
