Business Litigation Attorney in San Diego

What Is Litigation?

Business litigation involves some type of dispute between private individuals or entities. Whereas transactional law involves documentation and contracts to establish various types of business relationships, litigation is the unfortunate result of parties that need to take legal action for a particular type of conduct.

Many disputes can be avoided before filing an actual lawsuit. The initial litigation process can involve negotiations, demand letters, mediation, arbitration and other forms of dispute resolution. If a dispute is unable to be resolved by such methods, business owners may opt to file a formal lawsuit and pursue a court judgment.

A good business plan involves proper contracts and processes implemented at the outset. However, in the unfortunate event that a dispute arises, business owners should seek advice and representation from a business litigation lawyer.

Common Causes of Litigation

Litigation can arise in many circumstances. In the context of business disputes, litigation may arise in any of these common scenarios:

• Partnership Disputes
• Shareholder Disputes
• Breach of Contract
• Breach of Fiduciary Duties
• Employment Disputes
• Intellectual Property Infringement
• Tort Actions
• Securities Fraud
• Unfair Business Practices
• Violations of the Corporations Code
• And much more…

This is only a short list of business litigation examples, and is by no means comprehensive. Though many types of disputes fall into easily identifiable categories, many arise from unique and nuanced business relationships, and may arise in unexpected ways. A business owners should always take the proper steps to minimize risk and liability. But if a dispute becomes unavoidable, then the best strategy is to retain an attorney who can help represent and defend your interests.
