Our talented team can assist you throughout the investigation, discovery, pre-trial, and trial stages of your case. We can also help you explore potential settlement offers and appellate options.

Our Seattle business and commercial litigation lawyers can represent your company in many types of cases, including:

  • Partnership and Ownership DisputesConflicts involving company leadership or shareholder hostility can become especially contentious, and the outcome of  resulting litigation  may have significant ramifications for the future of your company. We can litigate cases involving breaches of contract, breaches of fiduciary duty, abuse of trade secrets, disagreements over authority, misappropriation of funds, limited liability company founder disputes, fraudulent activities, shareholder issues, and more.
  • Impact LitigationImpact litigation involves strategically leveraging the courts to facilitate governmental accountability, regulatory change or corporate responsibility. We routinely work with businesses and special interest groups to pursue impact litigation designed to achieve unique commercial, political and economic objectives, such as challenging needlessly burdensome regulation, asserting Constitutional prerogatives, and working towards fostering new economic development.
  • Breaches of Contract. Businesses will frequently enter into legal agreements with employees, clients, suppliers, contractors, and other companies. A well-written contract will explicitly define the roles and responsibilities of each party. Businesses can experience serious damages if another party fails to fulfill their contractual obligations, such as  providing the promised deliverables. Our litigation team can work to recover damages resulting from breaches of contract.
  • Breaches of Fiduciary DutyEmployees, including executives, partners, and owners, owe a fiduciary duty to the business that employs them. This means they have a legal responsibility to act in the company’s best financial interests. A business can suffer tremendous losses when this fiduciary duty is breached, often as a result of a misappropriation of funds, accounting manipulations or other types of fraudulent activity. We can litigate breaches of fiduciary duty and work to recover the maximum available compensation.
  • Consumer Issues. Numerous laws at the local, state, and federal levels seek to provide protection to consumers. Businesses may face legal action if one or more consumers allege fraud, defective or dangerous products, consumer protection act violations, or a myriad of other potential charges. We can work to protect your company’s interests when faced with these types of consumer-facing cases.
  • Intellectual Property Disputes. Companies employ numerous strategies to protect trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, and patents. This proprietary information is what gives many companies their competitive advantages. Litigation may be required to handle scenarios where sensitive information is leaked to competing firms, former employees unlawfully misappropriate your trade secrets, or another entity is exploiting your company’s protected intellectual property. Our litigation team can help you explore your legal options in these situations.
  • Unfair Competition Claims. “Unfair competition” allegations can come from consumers or competing firms. They typically involve claims that a company is abusing intellectual property, misappropriating trade secrets, engaging in false advertising, intentionally interfering with your business relationships or some other unlawful practice that seeks to inappropriately distinguish and elevate their business interest to the detriment of yours. We can help you navigate these types of claims, and find solutions to these unfair practices plaguing your business.
