Commercial Litigation

Commercial litigation can be very different from other lawsuits. This is primarily due to the involvement of businesses rather than just individuals. Additionally, the issues involved are usually very specialized and typically more complex, both factually and legally. Many times, commercial litigation is filed in federal court, rather than state court, and may include a class action or multi-district litigation.

High value commercial disputes may cross state and national borders and threaten a company’s very existence. Our attorneys have handled complex disputes involving joint ventures, commercial fraud including RICO, banking, oil and gas developments, insurance claims, manufacturing defects, mortgages, and real estate matters.

At West Legal Group PC we strive to help our clients make well-informed decisions, from the onset of a dispute through to resolution. We believe that adequate risk management is key to avoiding disruptive, large-scale litigation. If a dispute arises, we ensure that our clients are prepared with the resources, experience and knowledge to reach a prompt and successful resolution.

Our clients have trusted us to to guide them through their most significant litigation challenges and we are prepared to manage business conflicts via mediation, negotiation, or in State or Federal court. There is no doubt that the rigorous litigation process and its repercussions can add a great deal of stress and put a client’s goals in danger. We assess and advise on all of the possible resolutions taking potential time lengths and case economics to heart.

Here are some of the common areas of commercial litigation that we’ve encountered include:

  • Securities Fraud
  • Negligence
  • Racketeering (RICO)
  • Contract Disputes
  • Breach of Fiduciary Duty
  • Debtor / Creditor
  • Promissory Notes
  • Employment Disputes
  • Theft or Conversion
  • Partnership Disputes
  • LLC Member Disputes
  • Fraud & Misrepresentation
  • Real Estate Litigation
  • Investment Claims

In addition, we regularly represent secured, unsecured and subordinated creditors, equity security holders, sureties and insurers of financially troubled enterprises in connection with failed or failing real estate and construction projects, mass-tort cases, and ERISA-related matters.

From conducting factual investigations, researching applicable law, sending demand letters, engaging in settlement negotiations, filing suit, conducting discovery, participating in motion practice, trying the case before a judge or jury, filing post-trial motions, and in other capacities, including consulting, advisory and risk management, we are here for you.

    He took his time and really worked with us to make sure we were informed.

    David helped explain how I needed to create and start my company from formation to getting investors. He took his time and really worked with us to make sure we were informed. He also stressed we get it right on the first go around as changing important issues later could be costly.

    David helped my family recover against the firm and they settled before court date.

    A broker had placed my mother's retirement savings in several high risk investments that lost value almost immediately. We weren't aware of these investments until after she passed away. David helped my family recover against the firm and they settled before court date.

    Their work pays close attention to the importance of having everyone on the same page and having the client in charge and fully informed.

    David and Tim have been retained by me for one year to negotiate significant domestic and international settlements, and they have shown and used when doing so the requisite skills which have moved settlements toward favorable results. They are at their best when preparing and evaluating cases, when using appropriate tactics, when using countermeasures, when making first offers, when in direct examinations, cross examinations, and when in the examination of expert witnesses. Their writing is marked by being direct and precise, by blending precision with simplicity. David and Tim are particularly sensitive to complex moral situations, where no rule of thumb applies, no simple appeal to a single principle can assure a rational outcome. In such an instance they can be counted on to sort out the conflicting factors to determine what law, rule, or principle bears upon the situation, and what are the relative urgencies which govern a timely action. David and Tim command a family of intellectual traits and abilities which allows them to cope with the unexpected, grasp relations, and solve problems with speed and originality. Especially pronounced among their intellectual traits is their ability to create a congenial, professional relationship with their clients wherein written reports are delivered without fail on a designate date to a designated site to coincide with or be separate from timely discussions. Their work pays close attention to the importance of having everyone on the same page and having the client in charge and fully informed. I am a retired California State Senator who has hired and dealt with a number of skilled attorneys at law in the private and public sector. I have place David and Tim among the best of them and have in writing this statement measured them against this lot.

    We were told if David couldn’t understand these investments no one could. They were right.

    Our office brought David in to help with investment related problems associated with a large client. He was referred to us by another attorney in San Diego. We were told if David couldn’t understand these investments no one could. They were right. He met with us and took his time explaining the best way to handle. The client ended up hiring his firm also. We will be using him again.
