Commercial and Business Litigation
We represent companies and individuals in all types of civil litigation involving commercial and business disputes in both federal and state court. Our experience ranges from complex class-actions to straightforward contract disputes. Many of our cases involve business torts or claims of fraud or misconduct brought by or against businesses, officers, directors, partners or employees concerning claimed violations of contractual, shareholder, regulatory or common law rights.

Our firm also has extensive experience representing clients facing allegations of wrongdoing brought by the government or qui tam relators under the False Claims Act. The stakes in these so-called "whistleblower" cases are very high due to the nature of the allegations and the potential statutory penalties and regulatory consequences. We have litigated these cases, and have assisted numerous clients in avoiding costly, protracted litigation by obtaining advantageous resolutions. We also have helped clients establish compliance programs to avoid these claims in the first place.

Breach of contract claims of all kinds
