Commercial Litigation

Viewing:

Regardless of whether legal disputes involve large corporations, small businesses, or individuals, successful outcomes depend on the ability to shape the case from the outset. Consequently, Beck Redden’s Commercial Litigation practice aggressively pursues the facts and operative documents from the very beginning of the engagement. This allows the firm to home in on the legal theories and jury themes needed to win, and to develop the case with those theories and themes in mind. The hard edge of experience has taught us that this disciplined approach increases our odds of winning, regardless of whether victory comes in the form of a favorable judgment or an advantageous pre-trial resolution.

The lawyers at Beck Redden have successfully tried virtually every kind of commercial dispute there is. And they have done so before juries, judges, and arbitrators across the nation. Our clients have the satisfaction of going into court knowing that their case is backed by a trial team with a proven track record of success on both sides of the docket. Many firms only really begin preparing their case for a jury once they realize trial is imminent. We do not. At Beck Redden, we prepare each case for the ultimate test, the scrutiny of the factfinders and judges that will decide our clients’ fate. Putting in this effort helps ensure that our clients are in the strongest possible position throughout the lifecycle of their matter, including, if needed, the ability to prevail on appeal.

Our Commercial Litigation practice frequently assists clients with matters relating to:

Breach of Contract

We are often called upon to tackle complex contractual disputes, and we have a great deal of experience in simplifying such matters and presenting our client’s position in a way that will resonate with both the jury and the court.

Business Torts

We are regularly retained to represent both plaintiffs and defendants in cases involving allegations of fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, and a myriad of other types of commercial torts.

Class Actions & MDLs

The strength and depth of our litigation practice allows us to bring the needed resources to bear in representing clients in these complex cases involving multiple parties and often multiple jurisdictions. In addition to trial skills, such cases require exceptional leadership, management, and organizational capabilities.

Antitrust

We are well versed in evaluating highly technical economic issues for anticompetitive behavior and showing our client’s position to be the one more favorably aligned with free-market principles that benefit the consumer.

Securities Fraud & Shareholder Litigation

Handling these cases typically requires careful and diligent analysis of what each party knew, and when they knew it. In our experience, this sort of deep dive into the facts is essential for us to represent our clients successfully in these types of cases.

Real Estate

We have significant experience successfully representing clients in real estate disputes, including litigation involving title to real property and lawsuits involving disgruntled investors suing over a commercial real estate venture that did not meet expectations.

Beck Redden’s reputation as a premier trial law firm gives our opponents cause to assess their settlement expectations more carefully and objectively than they otherwise might. Our assertive and proactive approach – combined with our ability to staff cases efficiently – produces meaningful value for our business clients at every step of the engagement.
