Legal Meets Practical: Accessible Solutions

Contract Disputes

Nothing in business is foolproof. It does not matter how well contract documents are drafted or how amicably parties interacted at the beginning of the contractual relationship –  disputes can still arise. For small businesses, contract disputes may arise with third parties such as landlords, commercial suppliers, employees or subcontractors.

When disputes arise, how they are handled can determine how much time and money will be lost, not to mention whether a working relationship can be salvaged. Litigation should be viewed as a last resort.

Hiring legal counsel to address disputes not only demonstrates that you are prepared to protect your rights, but it also maximizes the chance of reaching a positive outcome. As an attorney with considerable experience in resolving contractual disputes for small businesses, I offer the following solutions depending on the nature of the situation:

  • Negotiations and counseling between parties
  • Contract reformation or rescission
  • Demand letters
  • Litigation

When disputes arise, it is important that they are handled properly. I can help you ensure that this is done.
