Business Litigation in Virginia and Maryland
When business disputes, whether between two businesses or between a business and a private individual, cannot be resolved through negotiation, the commencement of business litigation by filing suit is sometimes the only remaining remedy. Examples of business litigation include the following:
-contractual disputes between businesses, between a business and a customer, or between a business and its employee or contractor;
-a breach of fiduciary duty between business partners or shareholders in closely held corporations. If one member violates his obligation to operate in good faith and loyalty then other partners can recover with business litigation;
-litigation over the infringement of a patent, trademark or copyright; and
-wrongful denial of a commercial insurance claim. If a commercial insurance company undervalues or denies a fair claim then a business can sue to recover the amount to which it is entitled in business litigation.
A good business litigation attorney can be invaluable in protecting your rights and your company’s business interests.
The costs of litigation and the possibility of paying a judgment can threaten the viability of any business. At the same time, any business can find itself unpaid for work on a contract, under-served by a contractor, or damaged by faulty work to such an extent that litigation is the only alternative.
