A Trusted, Professional Litigation Law Firm With Decades Of Experience

A Wealth of Experience in Resolving Business Disputes

Commercial litigation takes many forms and may involve business owners, executives, enterprises and operations. It may involve contracts or duties that arise by statute or by operation of law. Business litigation often requires knowledge of accounting and finance since substantive claims are often predicated upon matters that involve accounting or finance, and the computation of damages frequently involves accounting principles.
