Commercial
Dispute Resolution
Unfortunately, despite the parties' good intentions when they enter a transaction, a dispute
may arise later. When that happens, we assist in trying to reach an early and efficient resolution, whether by informal
negotiations or by formal mediation. If those efforts fail, however, we can help the client develop and implement a
litigation plan that focuses on the key factual and legal
issues, not the minutae. Throughout that process, we look for ways to improve the client's settlement posture, and to
take advantage of any windows of opportunity to obtain a favorable resolution. But if the matter must be tried, our
clients can rely on an attorney who has tried more than 50 cases to court judgment or arbitral award.
Creditor's Rights and Remedies
In
collection cases, winning the case in a year is often not enough-if you do not get relief up front, you will waste a lot of
time and money, often without a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow as the debtor hides his assets. We have handled
over 500 applications for provisional remedies-writs of attachment, writs of possession, receivers, and injunctions.
Usually, if a creditor can obtain such relief in the first month of the case, a settlement quickly follows.
