In today’s complex economy, business litigation is unfortunately a part of doing business.  The fundamental type of business dispute involves the classic breach of contract or agreement.  Non-performance or disputes in the interpretation of the terms of a contract are common areas which often require advocacy of counsel and if necessary, judicial intervention to resolve. Businesses can also be injured by the wrongful acts of others giving rise to business torts claims.  These can include tortious interference with a contract, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, concealment, conversion, or breach of fiduciary duty.  Finally, when there are proprietary concerns litigation may be necessary to protect the trade secrets or to prevent the infringement of a business trademark.  Please click on the links below to learn more about their specific area.
