Pre-Litigation + Dispute Resolution
Most business disputes don't need to end up in court. We excel in helping clients resolve conflicts through strategic negotiation, mediation, and alternative dispute resolution to preserve relationships, protect reputations, and control costs.
We step in early to assess your position, identify leverage points, and develop a resolution strategy that aligns with your business objectives and budget.
Our Services
-
We review any relevant agreements and conduct necessary legal research regarding potential claims (or defenses) you may have and give you our honest take and recommended path forward in line with your business objectives and appetite for risk.
-
Sometimes our clients have claims against other companies or individuals (e.g., breach of contract) and may want to send a demand letter requesting that the party at fault take some action (e.g., pay money) to avoid the dispute escalating to litigation.
Other times, it’s our clients who receive the demand letter and they need our help formulating a response to prevent things from escalating further.
Whichever the case, we’ve got your back.
-
Negotiating settlements is one of our favorite things.
Whether our clients are the party who has been harmed or the opposite, we have negotiated hundreds of favorable outcomes for them.We can help you too.
-
Otherwise known as “litigation avoidance planning” - which just means building risk mitigation into your business operations and relationships from day one, so that conflicts don't escalate into costly legal battles.
We work with you to identify vulnerabilities in your contracts, relationships, and processes, then design systems that minimize exposure and position you to resolve conflicts quickly if they occur.
Think of it as preventive maintenance that keeps your business running smoothly.
-
Mediation is a structured negotiation process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps both sides work toward a settlement. It's voluntary, confidential, and less formal than court (but that doesn't mean it's casual).
The goal is to resolve your dispute without the time, expense, and uncertainty of litigation.
Many people underestimate how much preparation and strategy effective mediation requires. We assess your position, develop a negotiation strategy, advocate for your interests during the mediation, and ensure you don't agree to unfavorable terms under pressure.
Having experienced representation means you understand what you're agreeing to, don't leave value on the table, and make informed decisions based on legal reality, not emotion.
