Services
Business Litigation
We define business litigation as any litigation matter where the dispute is centered around an economic relationship, not personal injury or bodily harm. This includes disputes involving:
breach of contract;
corporate or partnership governance or dissolution;
director and officer liability;
theft of trade secrets;
violation of covenants not to compete and non-solicitation and non-disclosure agreements;
business torts;
fraud/misrepresentation;
breach of fiduciary duty; and
unfair competition.
Our attorneys have significant experience representing clients across diverse industries including energy, internet service, telecommunications, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, construction, retail, real estate development, and professional services. We have the skill and experience to guide our clients through litigation from beginning to end: from pre-litigation analysis and counseling through the filing of a complaint, motions practice, discovery, trial in front of jury, judge, or arbitration panel, and any subsequent appeal.
Construction Litigation
We have significant experience with all aspects of construction litigation. This includes payment disputes, change order disputes, delay claims, defective construction claims, and the filing and defense of mechanics’ lien claims. Our attorneys have represented owners, general contractors, and specialty sub-contractors as lead and local counsel in construction matters throughout the region.
Contract Review and Consulting
As litigators, we understand how contract drafting can shape the course of future litigation arising under the contract. Just as importantly, properly crafted contractual language can materially affect whether a future dispute even leads to an actual lawsuit. We work with our clients on the front end to draft effective contracts that will protect their interests in future disputes or that will help prevent future disputes from developing. We regularly review both commercial and construction contracts for our clients.
Personal Injury/Property Damage Litigation
We represent clients in personal injury and property damage cases, including insurance defense claims. Both Mr. Lund and Mr. Metcalfe have experience interacting with insurance carriers and representing clients in coordination with their insurance carriers.
