Complex business litigation involves some of the most time-consuming, complicated, and stressful legal proceedings there are. If you are facing any kind of high-stakes legal issue with your business, it’s critical to consult with reliable legal counsel to be able to carefully weigh your options before making any major decisions. While standard business litigation may be settled with simple procedures, sometimes alternative dispute resolution isn’t possible, and you may need to hire an experienced business litigation attorney who can help you navigate the intricacies of your case and get you the best possible outcome.
What Is Complex Business Litigation?
Types Of Complex Commercial Litigation Halpern Law Can Help With
- Partnership or Shareholder Dispute: These types of cases typically involve relationships among owners of a business that are damaged or have disintegrated, and such a breakdown threatens the value and viability of business interests.
- Whistleblower/ False Claims Act Cases: Filing a False Claims Act (commonly known as a “Qui Tam” case) involves highly specific processes and close coordination with the Office of the U.S. Attorney. They often involve supporting clients who pinpoint dangerous or specific legal practices by an employer, and to preserve these claims attorneys must navigate strict and specific legal procedures.
- Intellectual Property Disputes: Such cases deal with the misuse or violation of trademarked, copyrighted, or patented intellectual properties
- Oppressed Shareholder Cases: These situations occur when an owner with a minority interest in a business was dealt with unfairly or had not been compensated in a manner that reflects his or her true ownership interest, and the individual owner’s minority status limits their ability to correct the oppression.
- Unfair Competition or Non-Solicitation: These cases refer to situations where a business is trying to press a non-compete or non-solicitation clause in an employment or contract agreement, in order to protect against unfair competition by a former sale agreement party or employee. Legal protection may be necessary for individual clients against employers who are trying to stop an employee from working for a competitor.
- Trade Secret Claims: Trade secret claims usually involve a business seeking to enforce a restrictive covenant such as a confidentiality provision in an employment contract, or to protect against trade secrets or any other types of confidential information being released.
- Fraud: Any cases involving gains done through unethical means and/or intentional deception. Some examples include fraudulent wire transfers, credit card fraud, tax fraud, and bank fraud.
- First Amendment Cases: Any cases where one’s constitutional freedoms of expression, religion, speech, right to petition and/or assembly are in question or openly suppressed.
