The contract is the foundation of modern business. It lays out the parties' duties and responsibilities to the other parties. However, just because its in the contract does not mean that a court will enforce it, and parties often have implied duties that are not specifically stated. Its important to have attorneys who understand how your contract actually works.

Business torts, also known as economic torts, are wrongful acts that cause harm to a business, either directly or indirectly. These torts can include a wide range of legal claims, such as fraud, intentional interference with contract, intentional interference with business relationship, and defamation.
Just because a contract was not breached does not mean there is no liability. We help businesses recover when they have been wronged and also stay out of trouble.
A fiduciary duty is a legal obligation that requires a person or entity to act in the best interest of another party. The party who owes this duty is known as the "fiduciary," and the party who benefits from the duty is known as the "beneficiary."
Examples of fiduciary relationships include those between a trustee and a beneficiary, a corporate director and the corporation's shareholders, and an attorney and client. We help clients understand their fiduciary duties and take the right steps. You also might be the beneficiary of a fiduciary duty and want to understand what you are owed and if the fiduciary has acted in your best interest. We can also help you with that, too.
