Litigation Overview

As litigators, our attorneys recognize the advantage that a well-seasoned trial lawyer can bring to a business dispute while being sensitive to a client's desire to avoid the courthouse, if possible, and focus instead on their company's primary business objectives. Accordingly, we often seek to resolve business disputes through alternative means of dispute resolution, including negotiation, arbitration and mediation.

When necessary, however, we are prepared to litigate business disputes in all courts in North Carolina. We have argued cases across the state, and appeals at the highest appellate courts in North Carolina. We also regularly represent clients before administrative agencies and government decision-makers at regulatory, executive and legislative levels.

Our firm’s commercial litigation practice encompasses representing clients in both prosecuting and defending claims. Our depth of experience representing closely-held companies and individuals includes litigation matters involving contract disputes, administrative, licensing, and regulatory matters, land use and zoning, intellectual property, employment issues, construction law claims, real estate, and commercial leasing disputes. Specifically, our firm has represented property owners, tenants, contractors, construction professionals, engineers, and developers in litigation arising out of small to large construction projects. We also work with and advocate on behalf of both employers and employees in trade secret and employment-related litigation.

Our attorneys are known for their aggressive yet deliberate and professional approach to litigation. Strategy decisions are made in coordination with our clients, and we work diligently to guide them through each stage of the litigation process. Our firm is committed to knowing your business in order to best serve your needs in the context of commercial disputes.
