Resolving Complex Business & Commercial Disputes With Expertise
We are vigilant and zealous advocates, dedicated to supporting and protecting our clients’ business and commercial interests. Our experienced trial lawyers handle a wide range of business and commercial cases including contract disputes, unfair competition claims, business fraud litigation, intellectual property, and shareholder and partnership contests; always aiming for the most favorable outcome, in a cost-effective and timely manner. We represent businesses of all sizes, real estate developers, executives, entrepreneurs, investors, stakeholders and other institutions in a wide range of business and commercial lawsuits in all Massachusetts state and federal courts.
Our nationally recognized trial attorneys understand that legal disputes can drain business resources and divert the attention of ownership, management and staff from growth, operations and success. Our clients receive early and continuous assessments of their business and commercial litigation matters to help them determine the best path forward, whether through settlement, arbitration or trial. We leverage our trial experience, zealous advocacy and knowledge of businesses and industries in Massachusetts to help our clients achieve their objectives, as swiftly as possible.

Expertise in Complex Business Disputes
Our pre-trial approach is to treat every matter as if it is going to verdict. We maintain a constant familiarity with the rules of procedure and evidence, hone our advocacy and trial preparation skills, and immerse ourselves in the law, industry and transactions at issue in each matter. We use formal discovery and informal investigative techniques to gather material facts and then weave them into trial themes and theories of the case, drawing jurors and other factfinders to favorable conclusions. We apply our effort and expertise on matters ranging from small breach of contract cases to “bet the company” litigation matters.
We combine our legal expertise with strategic thinking, practical experience, strong negotiation skills and trial advocacy to provide high-touch legal services for clients involved in business and commercial disputes. We are effective communicators, responsive, and have a clear understanding of your business operations and goals. We assess risk, manage costs and provide ethical, high-quality legal representation for all of our commercial or business litigation clients.
