Business and Commercial Contract Disputes

We represent parties in disputes involving businesses both large and small. Effective representation in this area requires a thorough understanding of the many systems, practices and procedures that constitute a business, and the factors that influence the value of a business.

Complex issues can arise with regard to many aspects of a business, including accounting systems, tax issues, manufacturing and distribution processes, domestic or overseas business contracts and sub contracts, partnership agreements, employment agreements, purchase and sale agreements, and, often, the valuation of a business during contemplation of a sale, merger, acquisition or partner buyout. Many of these disputes involve many millions of dollars.

We have extensive experience in business and commercial cases, including representing the following clients:

• A former president of a corporation who sued in order to recover for breach of his employment contract.
• The prospective buyer of a business over disputes regarding agreements to purchase the business.
• The founder of a high-tech firm who sold his company to a publicly traded English company. The employment agreement provided that they would keep him on as president of the American subsidiary, but the British firm subsequently fired our client, thus avoiding payment of a substantial portion of the purchase price, which was to be paid through the employment agreement. We litigated the matter, with the successful result of the British company paying our client.
• A large company in a dispute with its insurer and insurance broker because of the insurer’s refusal to pay the company’s substantial claim. See Insurance Litigation.
• Shareholders who have wanted to dissolve corporations in order to receive their proper share of the corporation’s worth.
• We have represented lawyers and law firms in disputes concerning legal fees, profits and relationships and a variety of other matters. See Law Firm Representation.
