Commercial Litigation
If people just did what they said they were going to do, lawyers would not be necessary. This is especially true in the corporate arena, where business dealings and transactions ranging from multi-million dollar equity transactions memorialized into thousand-page agreements to simple “gentleman’s” agreements with nothing more than a nod and a handshake can unravel in minutes. To make sure that your business deal is carried out as it was intended, you need counsel at your side at all times, including during the memorialization of the transaction, to assist through any speed bumps during the completion of the transaction, as well as for any post-transaction misinterpretations and disputes.
