Jul 5th, 2008 by julie
Our business and commercial litigation practice includes a broad spectrum of matters and legal issues. Our attorneys represent clients both in the prosecution and defense of lawsuits in areas such as contracts, antitrust, the Uniform Commercial Code, business torts, real estate, employment, trade secrets, intellectual property protection, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, corporate matters, warranties, water, environmental, insurance coverage, and collections.
We take pride in our pre-dispute analyses of legal issues that enable our clients to best plan a course of action and minimize the cost or risk of litigation. We represent clients in both state and federal courts. We also handle appeals at all levels of the appellate process, and we represent clients in all forms of alternative dispute resolution, including arbitration and mediation.Our experience in contract and contract-related litigation includes numerous lawsuits and claims arising out of purchase and sale agreements, service contracts, franchise agreements, merger and acquisition agreements, guaranty and surety agreements, financial instruments, loan agreements, lease agreements, real estate contracts, and other business-related contracts of almost every type in federal and state jurisdictions across the United States.
Our commercial litigators are also very experienced in all aspects of the construction industry, having represented private and public owners, architects, engineers, land surveyors, general contractors, and subcontractors in a variety of legal proceedings throughout the State of Colorado. Our attorneys have dealt with all types of construction related issues ranging from pay disputes, mechanics’ lien and surety issues to performance issues based on delays, interference, defective design, site conditions, bidding, and mistakes.
Our commercial litigation practice is a prime area for utilization of our membership in Meritas. This membership allows us easy access to highly qualified colleagues in jurisdictions throughout the United States and the world so as to assist our clients in commercial litigation matters that cross jurisdictional lines, including collection of judgments, service of court pleadings and other documents, enforcement of agreements, applying law of other jurisdictions where applicable, and in many instances even bringing lawsuits on commercial matters in other jurisdictions.
