We understand that a client’s business plan, balance sheet and competitive profile are critical elements for success whether or not litigation is pending.

A successful resolution of your business dispute may have many components; we take the time to understand and address your most pressing needs and goals.

Our business and corporate litigation services encompass the full range of business and commercial disputes in Tampa, including:

Breach of Contract – Just about every business relationship is governed by a contract, whether oral or written, express or implied. Disputes may arise over whether one party has fulfilled the terms required under the contract, or over a misunderstanding of key terms. Remedies for a breach can include requiring specific performance of the contract and/or the payment of money damages. Our experience includes fighting for the correct interpretation of the most complex and complicated commercial contracts.

Business Torts – Even without a contractual relationship, competitors, government regulatory agencies, or members of the public at large may claim that a business is engaging in fraudulent or deceptive practices, or violating rules regarding fair trade and competition. Whether prosecuting or defending a business tort claim in a state or federal court or administrative proceeding, we provide strong, aggressive and insightful representation based on a thorough understanding of applicable laws and regulations, with skill and experience drawn from years advocating for our clients’ interests in the courtroom.

Corporate Disputes – Corporations and other business entities are complex legal entities, with many different elements holding different aspects of power, rights and responsibilities within the company. Corporate officers, the board of directors, and shareholders can all come into conflict with each other in different combinations. We represent parties in the most complex issues of corporate governance or alleged malfeasance, from small business partnership disputes to shareholder derivative suits filed against major corporations.
