Big disputes. Small print. You’re in good hands.

General Commercial Litigation

Overview

In business, disputes happen. When they do, you need more than just a litigator, you need a strategic partner who understands the potential impact on your business.

Gutwein Law’s commercial litigation team represents companies across industries in high-stakes disputes involving contracts, business relationships, and financial risk. Whether it’s a critical lawsuit or a routine breach of contract claim, we focus on what matters most: protecting your bottom line while preserving your business goals.

Services

  1. When a party fails to live up to its agreement, we move quickly to enforce your rights (or defend against unjust claims) through negotiation, litigation, or arbitration.

  2. We prosecute and defend claims of fraud, misrepresentation, tortious interference, breach of fiduciary duty, and unfair competition, always with a focus on financial recovery and business reputation.

  3. In a complex trade environment, market forces can quickly turn a good arrangement bad. We can help navigate and sever these relationships, mitigate potential losses, and recover what is owing.

  4. Disagreements between business owners can be complex and emotional. We represent shareholders, partners, and LLC members in disputes involving control, equity, valuation, freeze-outs, and dissolution.

  5. We help farmers navigate crop-share agreements and other leasing, rent and bonus payment disputes; overspray, environmental, and other premises liability claims and coverage; and negotiating financing for equipment and operational loans.

  6. We help businesses enforce restrictive covenants and protect confidential information or defend against overly broad or unenforceable restrictions in court.

  7. We represent creditors in recovering commercial debts, enforcing judgments, and navigating secured transactions.
