Business
Litigation.
Businesses
frequently find themselves needing counsel to either enforce or defend their
legal rights against competitors, suppliers, or even their own customers.
Business disputes often require both enforcing one’s own rights and
defending against the claims brought by the other party. Whether such
disputes are pursued in Federal or State courts, or are the subject of
arbitration, the attorneys of Fee & Jeffries are prepared to vigorously
protect your business interests. Our attorneys represent business clients in
the following types of claims:
n
Contract disputes--Breach of
contract actions take many forms. Sometimes the contract being
enforced is a formal written agreement many pages in length.
Other times it is an oral agreement that has been breached or the
violation of an understanding reached over a long-time course of
dealing. Yet others, the terms of the agreement are embodied
in a series of purchase orders and invoices. All contract
claims require the assistance of experienced counsel, like the
attorneys at Fee & Jeffries, to protect and vindicate a business’
bargained-for rights.
n
UCC claims--The Uniform Commercial
Code governs business dealings in a wide variety of settings,
including the sale of goods, security interests, banking, and
negotiable instruments, such as checks. Our attorneys
regularly represent the firm’s clients in litigation and arbitration
proceedings involving claims governed by the UCC.
n
Commercial fraud--Fraud is an
unfortunate reality in today’s business world. Successful
prosecution and defense of fraud claims requires tenacity, attention
to detail, and familiarity with the applicable substantive and
procedural law. Our attorneys are experienced in representing
clients involved in fraud claims including securities fraud, civil
theft, and conspiracies to defraud. |
