Common Business Disputes We Handle

Partnership Battles That Threaten Your Company

Business partnerships can turn ugly when money gets tight or partners disagree about the company’s future. These fights can tear apart businesses that took years to build and destroy relationships that seemed unbreakable.

Partnership problems we solve:

• Money disputes – When partners fight over profits, expenses, or how much each person should contribute
• Control battles – Disagreements about who makes decisions and runs daily operations
• Exit strategies – One partner wants out but can’t agree on buyout terms or company value

We step in to protect your interests when partnerships fall apart and help resolve disputes before they destroy your business.

Contract Fights and Broken Promises

Business contracts keep your company running smoothly. When someone breaks their promise to you or claims you broke yours, it can halt your operations and incur daily costs until the issue is resolved.

Contract disputes we handle:

• Supplier problems – When vendors don’t deliver on time, send bad products, or demand more money than agreed
• Customer issues – Clients who refuse to pay, want to change deals after signing, or claim you didn’t do the work properly
• Service agreements – Contractors who do poor work, miss deadlines, or abandon projects halfway through

We require people to uphold their promises or compensate for the damage they cause when they breach contracts.

Employee Lawsuits and Workplace Claims

Workers sometimes sue their employers for unpaid wages, unfair treatment, or being fired without good reason. These lawsuits can drain your bank account and hurt your reputation with customers and other employees.

Employee claims we defend against:

• Wage complaints – Claims for unpaid overtime, missed breaks, or incorrect pay calculations
• Discrimination cases – Workers who say they were treated unfairly because of age, race, gender, or disability
• Wrongful firing suits – Former employees who claim they were let go illegally, even when you had good reasons

Some workers face genuine issues that require fair solutions. But other employees lie about what happened because they want money or want to hurt their old boss. Either way, every lawsuit demands immediate attention because insurance doesn’t always cover these costs, and even false claims cost a lot of money to fight.

Getting Paid What You’re Owed

Unpaid bills hurt your cash flow and make it hard to grow your business. When customers refuse to pay or argue about legitimate charges, legal action often works faster than sending more invoices.

We help collect your money through:

• Debt collection – Legal pressure to make customers pay overdue accounts before they become total losses
• Construction liens – Filing mechanic’s liens to force property owners to pay contractors for completed work
• Bad debt recovery – Going after old accounts that customers have ignored for months

Don’t let unpaid bills pile up and threaten your business survival. We take fast action to recover the money people owe you.

Protecting Your Business Property

Your business location near the ocean is valuable and important for your success. Property disputes with landlords, buyers, or city officials can force you to move or close unexpectedly.

Property problems we solve:

• Lease disputes – Fighting landlords who try to raise rent unfairly, skip repairs, or kick you out without proper cause
• Sale conflicts – Problems when buying or selling commercial property go wrong due to hidden issues or broken promises
• Zoning fights – Challenging city rules that prevent you from using your property the way you planned

Your business location is too important to risk. We protect your right to operate where you’ve built your customer base and reputation.
