Commercial Litigation
Whether building or acquiring facilities or equipment, contemplating business mergers or acquisitions, contracting for the purchase or sale of goods and services, developing policies, procedures, plans and agreements concerning employees and independent contractors, or simply attempting to comply with the constantly growing array of rules, regulations, codes, ordinances, statutes and laws effecting businesses, we deliver solutions for our clients.

We assist business clients in the formation and operation of their businesses. We assist clients in choosing between sole proprietorship, general and limited liability partnerships, subchapter C & S Corporations, and limited liability companies. We also provide advice on non-compete agreements, non disclosure and confidentially agreements.

Post-formation needs may include employment agreements, standard contracts for goods and services, or the acquisitions of new or additional real estate for the conduct of business. Occasionally, an entity may need to seek enforcement of a contractual obligation, or defend claims brought against it. We are prepared to represent these clients and eliminate the need for a business to retain additional counsel for most litigation situations.
