Our firm has an established practice of representing businesses and entrepreneurs in business disputes. Virtually any business transaction can give rise to litigation. Although the goal is always to find resolution through mediation, negotiation or dispute resolution, litigation is sometimes necessary to protect a health of the business.
Business litigation encompasses a wide range of issues. The types of litigation include director, stockholder or partner disputes, simple and complex contract disputes, derivative suits, claims involving breach of fiduciary duties, oppression of minority stockholders, usurpation of business opportunities, exercise of the business judgment rule, Title VII discrimination, sexual harassment cases, personal injury actions, employment contracts, unfair business practices, covenants against competition, injunction actions, zoning disputes, and real estate litigation. Even in a thriving business, disputes often arise over ownership and control. In situations where a business is dissolving, the process is frequently contentious.
