Business Litigation

Business transactions and contracts may result in disputes between parties that they are unable to resolve informally. In these circumstances, one party or the other may turn to the court system for assistance. Due to the complexity of federal and state laws that may govern your dispute, as well as the myriad of court rules that may apply to your situation, you must immediately consult with a Los Angeles attorney who is experienced in matters of business litigation. If you have received court papers or even a letter from another party threatening litigation, you should contact Kenneth J. Sargoy without delay. Court cases involving business disputes have strict time limits and deadlines during which you must respond and perform certain necessary actions. Failing to file within the applicable statute of limitations for your case or to file responsive documents in court could place you in serious financial jeopardy. Additionally, civil litigation may lead to criminal prosecution in certain situations. Consequently, it is crucial that you retain counsel to represent your interests in any type of business litigation.

What is most important in litigation is finding the evidence to prove your case.  Litigation is often a bitter fight between the parties involved. Your adversary may attempt to hide or destroy evidence that you need to prosecute or defend your case.  Therefore, it is critical that a person quickly hire competent counsel so that steps can be undertaken to preserve evidence.

One of the biggest mistakes a business owner can make is to attempt to handle court matters or litigation on his or her own. Federal and state laws and court procedures are varied, complicated, and pose a mine field for non-lawyers.  Contact Kenneth J. Sargoy for experienced business law representation when you are considering whether to file a lawsuit, must file court papers in defense of a lawsuit, have been contacted by another person’s lawyer, or threatened with a lawsuit.
