BUSINESS LAWSUITS

KEEPING YOUR BUSINESS AFLOAT THROUGH THE LEGAL PROCESS

No matter your type of business or the services you provide, you will likely need the advice and guidance of a skilled legal professional. Whether you are drafting documents for a new venture, battling a contract dispute or resolving a disagreement between shareholders and owners, the insight of a trusted legal resource can be invaluable.

At Friedman, Dever & Merlin, we have extensive experience representing businesses facing a broad range of legal matters. With offices in Atlanta, our lawyers are prepared to represent clients throughout Georgia and the United States. Typically, we represent small to midsized businesses as well as family businesses in all manner of legal disputes.

EXCEPTIONAL REPRESENTATION IN A VARIETY OF LEGAL MATTERS

Typically, our business litigation attorneys handle matters including:

  • Business torts: When the wrongful conduct of an individual or competing business causes financial harm, it is said to be a business tort. Business torts can take many forms, including fraud, breach of fiduciary duty or tortious interference with a contract.
  • Owner/shareholder disputes: Even though everyone involved wants the business to succeed, it is not uncommon for shareholders, partners and owners to disagree on vital aspects of the business. From compensation packages to conflicts of interest, an attorney can provide the necessary guidance.
  • Officer/director liability: Matters challenging officers and directors of companies can include shareholder derivative actions, shareholder challenges to mergers and acquisitions, and dividend or distribution disputes.

We have the legal knowledge and business acumen to develop a strategy for your business lawsuit. Our firm understands the balance of delicacy and urgency with which most legal matters must be handled. Trust us to find innovative solutions to your complex legal dilemmas.
