Conflict doesn’t necessarily mean that expensive and exhausting litigation must follow. Our attorneys take a proactive approach to resolving disputes and seek to avoid litigation, when possible. Often, the controversy amounts to a misunderstanding over expected performance, which can be cured by revisiting the contract and reforming imprecise terms. When an actual breach has occurred, we search for efficient ways to implement the most appropriate remedy. We use negotiation, mediation and arbitration as alternatives to control costs and save time. But when justice requires aggressive litigation, we are equipped to diligently advocate for our clients’ rights.
