Lawsuits can have enormous effects on businesses, and whether you are initiating an action or responding to one, you will likely devote a considerable amount of both time and resources to that effort. With expert business litigators who know how to deliver results as quickly and cost-effectively as possible, the DeLuca Law Firm will provide the necessary legal services to protect your interests and let you get back to running your business.
Business-related disputes run the gamut, from seemingly simple to complex issues. Many suits can be settled through earnest negotiation, others are resolved by means of arbitration and mediation, and a small number proceed to trial before judges and juries in state and federal courts. We have vast experience in each of these forums, helping clients achieve the most favorable results.
We have obtained successful outcomes in business litigation involving:
We have brought and defended cases for individuals, start-ups, small businesses, privately-held companies, and some of the world’s largest corporations, and also have substantial experience acting as regional counsel for several major automobile and commercial truck manufacturers. Regardless of the client, we take the time to thoroughly investigate every aspect, determine the objective, and craft an appropriate strategy to achieve the desired outcome.
For more than 30 years, we have capably represented manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and retailers in product liability and breach of warranty/lemon law litigation disputes including:
This area of the law is complicated, varying between state and federal statutes and regulations. Because of our deep understanding of the automotive industry and the legal issues its participants regularly face, we counsel our clients to avoid common mistakes and provide them with the strategic advice that helps prevent litigation and manage risk. We not only know the law but also have the advocacy skills necessary for high-stakes courtroom litigation.
Our attorneys have substantial experience representing clients in a wide variety of litigation matters affecting banks and the financial services industry. We frequently advise and defend banks, automobile lenders, mortgage lenders, and other financial institutions in a range of disputes in state and federal courts.
Business disputes can impact day-to-day operations, employee morale, strategic relationships, shareholder value, and even a company’s survival. As the number of parties to a lawsuit grows and insurers get involved, litigation can be costly in terms of both time and money.
No matter the issue, consulting a seasoned attorney with a track record of success in commercial litigation, business litigation, and product liability cases is essential. We will listen to your situation and circumstances, understand the facts as they relate to the law, and advise you on appropriate next steps, whether you’re contemplating filing a lawsuit or defending an action against you.
