For most companies, it is not a question of if they will become involved in litigation but rather when that will happen. Business and commercial disputes can come from numerous directions–from your competitors, your customers, your vendors, your employees, or even your business partners. Successful preparation for business disputes requires a combination of business experience and business litigation expertise.
