THE LITIGATION EXPERIENCE YOU NEED
Our firm handles a wide range of legal matters having to do with corporate litigation:
Business legal disputes can arise when one or more parties don’t honor an agreement. Breach of contract, fraud, non-compliance, and unfair business practices may be the focus of the lawsuit. Employment litigation is a subset of this area. Litigation may also focus on the dissolution or break up of a business.
In business, contracts are drafted and signed on a routine basis. You may rely on a business law attorney to manage the contract’s writing and authority. It’s also not uncommon for one party named in a contract to not fulfill their obligations. Such disputes, if not resolved, demand the help of an experienced litigation attorney.
Business litigation:
Business legal disputes can arise when one or more parties don’t honor an agreement. Breach of contract, fraud, non-compliance, and unfair business practices may be the focus of the lawsuit. Employment litigation is a subset of this area. Litigation may also focus on the dissolution or break up of a business.
Such a dispute can have a detrimental effect on your business. It may arise due to a misunderstanding, or perhaps a contract has ambiguous terms. Our Los Angeles business litigation attorney can represent you and your firm to work out challenging disputes, so all parties can work out their differences.
Building contractors may not live up to their promises on deliverables, delaying a project and costing developers and other stakeholders dearly. Defects in materials and workmanship can have drastic impacts; a civil litigation attorney can hold a negligent party responsible.
A bad faith claim may hold an insurance company liable for denial of coverage or failure to properly negotiate a settlement. By law, an insurance company owes those it insures a duty to act in good faith. If you’ve taken all other reasonable steps, our business attorney can help litigate a case against the insurer.
Our attorneys specialize in real estate litigation practices such as Quiet Title action, or can help with broker and lender misrepresentation, fraud, and predatory lending. If you’ve been foreclosed wrongfully or in error, we can file an unlawful detainer, so you can remain at home until the matter is resolved.
Our attorneys specialize in trademark, patent, and copyright law to protect your creation against unauthorized use, or infringement. If you pursue an infringement case in court, our lawyers can represent you, uphold your legal rights, and determine whether litigation is in your best interest.
Employers terminate workers for many reasons. A termination may be wrongful if it’s to punish an employee for seeking workers’ compensation. Being fired for reasons of age, race, religion, sexual orientation, a disability, or having an arrest record constitute wrongful termination as well.
Information on trademarked products is considered confidential. If a competitor or any other party acquires or uses this information without your consent, our business litigation attorneys in Los Angeles can assist you in filing an intellectual property claim. Trade secrets may involve any aspect of your business, product, or idea.
Wrongful termination and job discrimination are prohibited by law, but dealing with them legally can be a challenge. Our experienced business attorney can provide legal counsel if you think you’ve been discriminated against, harassed, or faced hostility at work. For employers, we seek to resolve disputes quickly but in a manner fair to both parties.
In real estate, misrepresentation is when a client has been deceived by a broker or lender. It can lead to deals, such as a mortgage approval, that are unaffordable. If you’re a victim of fraud, our attorney can fight for you to recover financial damages and hold the defendant accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
Applies to someone entrusted as the executor or trustee of a will or trust, who does not carry out the duties and interests specified in the document. The trustee can be held liable for fraud, withholding information, failing to keep accurate financial records, and not abiding by laws related to administering an estate.
Each corporate litigation case begins with an investigation and evaluation of your claims or defenses by an experienced business attorney. We can therefore make a proper assessment of your case with respect to your goals for pursuing litigation. Afterwards, your Orange County or Los Angeles litigation attorney can move forward with filing the claim and/or responding to the complaint.
