Commercial Litigation
In an era where many valuable business assets are intangible, experience and success in litigating about patents, trade secrets, covenants not to compete and unfair competition are critical to your survival in a fast moving marketplace.

Litigation for most businesses is not routine, and we don’t treat it as such. Whether the dispute involves real estate; employment; products; defamation or advertising; construction; taxes; the environment; discrimination; securities fraud; shareholder oppression; failed contracts; a creditor’s claim; or whatever is involved in a claim for or against our client, we immediately seek out the facts and prepare an agreed battle plan.

Commercial disputes in Wisconsin sometimes come from a lack of understanding of state and local law. Termination of a dealership in Wisconsin, for example, involves a special set of legal requirements, and is more difficult in Wisconsin than almost anywhere else.

The breadth and depth of available discovery in claims for or against you has recently changed significantly. Electronic discovery is now the norm. We have experience with the new rules and cases, and can help use electronic discovery to make your case, and protect you from abuse of it against you.

Our litigation experience in these areas, and in the broadest range of commercial contract and tort issues, will give you the advantage.
