What types of Business Cases Does Your Firm See Most Often?

“In these economic times, we have seen a significant increase in breach of contract disputes of all types and in litigation concerning real property.

“Construction claims, intellectual property disputes, homeowner association matters, shareholder/partnership breakups and probate litigation have all multiplied. Why? The easy answer is to say that entities and individuals are fighting over money.

“However, we hear over and over again: ‘We were doing business and something went wrong. We were buying or selling property and circumstances changed and something went wrong. Something went wrong with my grandmother’s will, or something went wrong and I got sued.’

‘These are times of ‘something went wrong,’ and our law firm is there to help.”
