"Business litigation" is a complex area of law which includes a variety of claims of contract breach; business torts such as fraud, misrepresentation, conversion, and interference with contract; and unfair and deceptive trade practices.

Breach of fiduciary duty can cause a strain between business partners or shareholders in closely held corporations.  If one member violates his obligation to operate in good faith and loyalty then other partners can recover with business litigation.

If commercial insurance companies undervalue or deny a fair claim, then individuals and businesses can recover the amount they are entitled to with business litigation.  Insurance companies can sometimes attempt to avoid fully paying a legitimate claim, or even avoid paying it at all, by using confusing or deceptive wording in the contract.  There are countless other areas in which a business may have a need for business litigation to resolve a dispute against another business.

Business litigation is not limited exclusively to businesses suing other businesses.  In certain cases individuals may assert claims against businesses and vice-versa.

When business disputes occur between a business and an individual or between two business entities, resolution without resorting to business litigation will always be preferable for everyone involved.  In cases where that just isn't possible, I can be invaluable in protecting your rights and your company's business interests.  Let's face it.  Some cases just need to be tried.  If that is your case, you will want an experienced trial attorney on your team.
