Recognizing a growing need for local businesses and individuals wronged in commercial transactions, the busy Coral Springs trial lawyers of Rader Law Group, LLC, have announced the expansion of their business litigation division.
“Following the pandemic shutdown, and now with inflation running rampant and the economy being in flux, we’ve seen a tremendous increase in business deals gone bad,” said attorney Howard Weitzner. “We have been handling numerous cases and fielding calls concerning employment disputes, breach of contract claims, fraud cases, unpaid commissions and partnership disagreements, among other matters.”
For the attorneys at Rader Law Group, who have battled big businesses and insurance company giants in the personal injury world for decades, the decision to take on more cases involving business transaction disputes was a natural one. The firm maintains its overall commitment to justice and righting the wrongs suffered by its clients. Firm founder Andrew Rader will be heading the business litigation division.
“Whether it is a personal injury case or a breach of contract case, our job, as trial lawyers remains the same: to hold wrongdoers responsible and accountable for the harms and losses they cause individuals, the public and our clients,” said Rader. “Under the law, in the business context, when you ignore your contractual obligations, when you breach your duties, perpetrate a fraud, misrepresent facts or engage in unfair trade practices, you should be brought to task to pay the damages you caused. That is where we come in.”
Whether working on behalf of an individual or an entity, Rader Law Group sets itself apart in this field by handling many of its business litigation matters on a contingency basis, meaning the client will not pay a large retainer up front or be charged an hourly rate. Instead, in those cases, the firm will partner with the client and only take a portion of the recovery at the end of the case, if one is made.
“If you’ve already been wronged, if you are already out thousands of dollars, you should not have to pay anything more just to have access to the Courts,” said Rader. “While most local firms won’t even entertain working on a contingency in business matters, we do, as sometimes it is the only way our clients can afford to seek justice. We bear the risk of losing, not them.”
Rader Law Group will still be handling personal injury matters, the field in which it has become known over the years. The growth of its business litigation practice is a reflection of the times and the needs of the community.
“We are privileged to be a part of the Coral Springs, Parkland and Coconut Creek communities,” attorney Weitzner said. “Being involved in organizations like the Chambers of Commerce, we have gotten to know many of our town’s great business leaders and truly believe in supporting those local businesses. We heard their concerns and we listened.”
