Litigation

Litigation is any dispute, or lawsuit, that is heard by a court of law. At Weiss & Associates, P.C., our business attorneys makes it a top priority to help you avoid litigation - by being proactive as much as possible, and if litigation is unavoidable, by posturing to be in as good and secured a position as possible under the circumstances - and we will be there for you if litigation does become necessary to either defend your company in a lawsuit or to file suit to protect the legal rights of your company.

Litigation Experience

Cases which have successfully resolved include shareholder/member disputes, easement restrictions, subdivision associations, condominium associations and road associations matters, breach of contract, real estate contract disputes, franchise disputes, property tax disputes and more. We have years of experience dealing with non-competition agreements, non-solicitation agreements and other employer/employee contract disputes.

While litigation should be avoided whenever possible, as there is never certainty of outcome, if a situation does present itself which requires representation either as a plaintiff or defendant, know that the attorneys at Weiss & Associates, P.C. focus on trying to resolve the matter expeditiously and economically.

Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”), including arbitration and mediation, is also occasionally utilized to resolve disputes instead of judicial litigation.
