COMMERCIAL PRACTICE

We handle Business and Commercial Litigation. We deal with commercial and trade disputes. We help our clients with corporate disputes, such as shareholder litigation, corporate control contests, suits to pierce the veil, and labor management disputes.

We think outside of the box to provide solutions to our business clients. From suits over interstate timber swindles, to claims against the U.S. Postal Service for negligent inspection of mailboxes, and challenges to local zoning which effect interstate motor carrier commerce, we provide options to our clients outside the traditional legal mindset.
