Litigation

 

Commercial and Business Dispute Litigation. No matter how carefully you try to avoid civil litigation, disputes can still arise and potentially develop into lawsuits. That is why commercial and business litigation accounts for a substantial part of the law practice for many Lang Baker & Klain attorneys.

William G. Klain and our other commercial litigators bring a forceful, problem-solving attitude to our clients’ Arizona business disputes, and our lawyers' goals are the same in every litigation case: to advocate your position, resolve the controversy and disputed issues, and achieve the best possible outcome – at the least amount of disruption and cost to you.

Our law firm has assembled a highly skilled team of commercial lawyers with substantial, wide-ranging litigation and arbitration experience in business and corporate law. Our business and civil litigation includes:

  • the prosecution and defense of corporate disputes among shareholders, limited liability company (LLC) members, partners, officers and/or directors;

  • failed commercial transactions;

  • intentional wrongdoing in business settings;

  • non-competition agreements;

  • trade secrets;

  • unfair competition;

  • deficiency actions in foreclosure lawsuits;

  • receiverships;

  • injunctions; and

  • an array of business torts involving individuals, corporations, LLCs and partnerships.

Our lawyers are also available to assist out-of-state attorneys by serving as local counsel on matters pending in Arizona.
