Specialized Focus Areas

• Contractual and Franchise Disagreements: Contractual disputes pose significant risks to a business's financial health and reputation. Our deep understanding of contract law aids in drafting and negotiating agreements designed to mitigate potential disputes. We also specialize in resolving franchise disagreements, focusing on the value and obligations outlined in franchise contracts.
• Alternative Dispute Resolution: Many modern contracts mandate alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation and arbitration. Our attorneys excel in these areas, often achieving favorable outcomes through skilled negotiation and private arbitration.
• Debtor-Creditor Rights: We represent both debtors and creditors in state, federal, and appellate courts, addressing complex insolvency proceedings and creditors' rights issues. Our guidance is tailored to secure or recover debts efficiently, whether secured or unsecured.
