A dispute can derail your business. Let us analyze your options, negotiate a solution, and, if necessary, represent your interests in court.

We help our clients avoid disputes through proactive strategic counseling, clear and well-designed contracts, and negotiated solutions. But when conflict is unavoidable, we’re ready and able to help.

  • Resolving or litigating contract disputes

  • Negotiating resolutions of member, founder, and shareholder disagreements
