What is Commercial Litigation?

Commercial litigation involves legal disputes between businesses or individuals engaged in business activities. These disputes can arise from various issues, including:

• Breach of contract
• Business torts (e.g., fraud, misrepresentation)
• Partnership disputes
• Shareholder conflicts
• Intellectual property disputes
• Employment matters
• Insurance claims
• Regulatory compliance issues

Given the diverse nature of commercial litigation, it is essential for businesses to have knowledgeable legal representation to protect their interests.
