Frequently Asked Questions

Protecting your business from breach of contract lawsuits starts with drafting legally sound, clearly written contracts. Regular contract reviews by one of our experienced attorneys help ensure that agreements are up-to-date and enforceable.

Additionally, clear communication, including explicit terms and dispute resolution clauses, as well as ensuring both parties understand their obligations, can minimize the risk of disputes.

To ensure compliance, follow these steps:

  1. Register your business with local and state authorities.
  2. Obtain necessary permits and licenses.
  3. Stay updated on industry-specific regulations.
  4. Implement employee training on legal compliance.
  5. Conduct regular legal audits with the help of our attorneys to address any regulatory changes and avoid penalties.

Each of these steps involves detailed sub-steps that can be difficult to manage without legal counsel. Our attorneys can help guide you through the entire process to help ensure compliance at each level.

Partnership and shareholder disputes can arise from disagreements over roles, profits, or business direction, and early legal intervention is essential to prevent escalation. Mediation and arbitration are effective options for resolving these issues without lengthy litigation.

Our attorneys can guide you through these options or represent you in court if that becomes necessary. Let us help you with your litigation matters today. 


Intellectual property disputes can threaten your business’s competitive edge. To resolve these disputes without damaging your business, seek legal representation to protect your assets and enforce your rights.

Our firm can help you with negotiations, filing claims, or defending against accusations, all while minimizing disruptions to your operations.

Mediation or arbitration can save time and money compared to traditional litigation. These methods are less formal and more private and can help maintain your business relationships.

Consult our experienced commercial litigation attorneys to determine if alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is appropriate for your specific dispute, as it’s often a faster and more cost-effective option.
