Protecting Your Interests in All Commercial Litigation Matters

The field of commercial litigation covers an enormous number of legal actions that can arise out of any type of business relationship, transaction, contract, or other issues. Our Miami commercial litigation attorneys tackle a wide range of scenarios involving commercial litigation, including:

Contractual Disputes:  

Agreements, whether written or not, are central to your business operations. When you need legal help enforcing your contractual rights or defending your company’s interests, you can trust our lawyers to assist with a dispute. Franchise agreements, financing

UCC Litigation:

Florida’s Uniform Commercial Code governs an extensive array of commercial transactions, including sales, leases, secured transactions, negotiable instruments, and much more. One key article that can be the focus of a commercial dispute is the section regarding the sale of goods, which contains very specific provisions on contract formation, performance, modifications, and remedies. Because of the complexities, lawsuits over UCC transactions are common.

Tortious Interference Lawsuits:

When there is misconduct in a business transaction or relationship, a company may have a claim for tortious interference. Florida organizations do have rights to seek relief when a business interferes with a contract, and may even have rights with respect to a prospective economic advantage.

Corporate Governance and Internal Disputes:

In some situations, commercial litigation results from some dispute within a company. Owners, officers, key employees, and shareholders all have legal rights and responsibilities; failure to comply with their obligations can give rise to a lawsuit. One common example is litigation to address a breach of fiduciary duty or conflict of interest, which affects the interests of shareholders. Other potential areas of dispute may involve disagreements over mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, dissolution, and related business dealings.

Antitrust Enforcement Litigation:

There are antitrust statues at the state and federal level to prevent formation of monopolies, collusion, and other anticompetitive restraints on trade. Though government officials are empowered with enforcement authority, it is sometimes necessary to take matters into your own hands. Fortunately, the law allows you to seek damages and equitable relief through a private antitrust lawsuit.

It is always our goal to avoid expensive commercial litigation by providing solid, knowledgeable advice to guide your business operations. However, if legal action becomes necessary, we have the experience and litigation skills to represent you in court.
