Litigation: General Commercial

About

Provided by Verrill Dana, LLP

Our trial attorneys have represented clients in complex business disputes in state and federal trials and appellate courts, administrative tribunals, and alternative dispute resolution proceedings across the country.

There are cases in which a trial is necessary, but we know an early case analysis and strategic plan can provide the opportunity for an early successful resolution, avoiding litigation altogether.
