Commercial Disputes
We use our experience to help entrepreneurial clients make the most appropriate decisions to efficiently address and resolve commercial disputes, given their individual goals and risk tolerances.
With almost twenty years of legal experience, our firm prides itself on its ability to tenaciously and effectively advocate for our clients’ interests in contested, commercial disputes, including through litigation and arbitration. However, understanding the disruption and risk that legal contests can bring, our firm is more wholistic in our approach to addressing client controversies. First, we assess our clients’ potential exposure and rights and then develop strategies to address and resolve commercial disputes efficiently and fairly, first by negotiations, informally or through a structured mediation, and then formally through a contested arbitration or litigation proceeding, as necessary. Understanding our clients’ potential exposure – and the most efficient path to dispose of claims – defines our strategy to create the most advantaged outcome possible for our commercial clients in all contested matters.

Note – Past success in civil litigation is no guarantee of future success in civil litigation and hiring an attorney is an important decision that should not be made based solely on advertisements. Prospective clients are encouraged to contact their local bar associations and speak to several attorneys before making a hiring decision.
