If you have a successful business, most likely you will find yourself in need of a Dallas business litigation attorney at some point. Our attorneys have extensive commercial litigation experience, including in the following areas:
Breach of Contract – A breach of contract usually occurs when one or more of the parties fails to perform as promised, makes it impossible for the other party to perform, or makes it known they have an intention not to perform. Any relationship established by a contract is at risk for a dispute or legal issue. This could include any of the following relationships:
- Employer / employee relationships
- Landlord / tenant relationships
- Business / client relationships
- Business partnerships
Commercial Real Estate – Whether your case involves landlord/tenant disputes, a construction project, property damage, a building lease or a commercial property loan, we understand the real estate business and have the expertise to handle your dispute.
Securities Fraud – If you suspect you may have been induced into making investment purchase or sale decisions on the basis of false information, you can bring securities fraud claims under one or more causes of action including:
- Fraud, Omissions, Misrepresentations
- Breach of Fiduciary Duty
- Over-Concentration/Non-Diversification
- Churning/Excessive Trading
- Failure to Supervise
Plaintiffs generally bring these as class action lawsuits and they require an experienced class action attorney.
Oil & Gas – You find out that you have inherited some land in west Texas that has mineral rights. This sounds great until you find out that the company that has leased those rights has not paid any royalties to your deceased great aunt for years. We can help resolve disputes between property owners and lessees in matters such as royalty disputes, pollution issues, contract disputes, and lease disputes.
Consumer Fraud – Consumer fraud is the intentional deception of the general public by a group of companies, a single company, or an individual. Instances of consumer fraud have increased in the past few decades, aided largely by the growth of the Internet. We can hold companies that thrive on unfair business practices accountable however. Plaintiffs usually bring these types of cases as class actions. The purpose of class actions is to vindicate the individual rights of injured consumers. These lawsuits are often the best way of directly compensating victims of unfair business practices and our firm has extensive experience in handling these types of cases.
Mergers & Acquisitions – Merger transactions are complicated but whether you want to rescind, terminate or enforce a merger agreement, our attorneys understand every facet of mergers and acquisitions.
