Contracts & Financial Disputes
We represent individuals and their companies in contract and financial disputes involving a wide range of issues, including partnership, contract, and business disputes, unfair trade and consumer practices, violation of employment contracts, and other business disputes. Virtually any contract, whether written or oral, qualifies for protection from unreasonable interference or breach.
We have handled disputes relating to automobile and motorcycle dealerships; franchise agreements; partnerships; LLCs (limited liability companies); distributor agreements; embezzlement; wrongful bank payment on presented items; professional and other employment agreements; indemnification; leases; company start-ups; promoter liability; fraud; and illegal sale of securities, just to name a few. We have also handled financial work-outs, including a work-out on a $55.0m bank guarantee during the last recession.
We understand how disruptive the cost and distraction of litigation can be and know it is important to resolve these types of disputes quickly in order to keep costs down and distractions to a minimum. With this in mind, we make every effort to achieve a negotiated result without litigation. If a negotiated settlement cannot be reached, we will aggressively try your case to the court or jury, as we have done successfully many times. In fact, we have successfully briefed and argued some of the leading published appellate decisions on contract, insurance, and other law in this state.
