The personal injury attorneys here at The Law Office of J. Edward Shipp, LLC are dedicated to helping you. If you are reading this, you have most likely been injured in an accident that resulted in some type of injury. The accident may have been severe and resulted in broken bones, head trauma, or other serious injuries. The accident may have even resulted in you not being able to function the way that you did before the accident. Perhaps you have found yourself wondering what to do next. Personal injury law is complex and difficult to understand. Often there is new vocabulary you must learn in order to communicate with healthcare providers, insurance companies, and law enforcement. Some of these terms could be “subrogation”, “causation”, or “negligence per se”. The insurance company may insist on not paying what you believe is rightfully owed to you.

If you attempt to pursue your claim without the help of a qualified attorney, you could further complicate your ability to receive the money you need. For instance, the insurance company may ask to take your recorded statement. This should not be done. Insurance companies are not there to help you with your claim against them. They are there to save money for the bottom line and ensure that they pay you as little as possible.

Small business litigation is an area of law comprising the various types of disputes that can arise in the business context. These cases include disputes such as a breach of contract, partnership and joint enterprise disputes, business torts, civil litigation, and breach of fiduciary duty litigation.

In business-to-business litigation, both sides often have claims and defenses rather than in consumer litigation where there is a clear plaintiff and a clear defendant (think personal injury law where there is an apparent victim and defendant). This is because it is relatively rare for a contractual dispute to arise without both parties playing some role in the resulting disagreement (either justifiably or unjustifiably).

Successful small business litigators must evaluate the merits of a dispute and listen to their clients to determine how best to prosecute or defend against a claim. Because of this area of the law’s complexity, sound judgment and strategic decision-making are the two most critical skills. When “bet-the-company” cases arise, making a mistake of judgment is not an option. Also because of its complexity, clients with important business litigation matters should be sure to hire attorneys that know their industry, understand their business, and are readily accessible to them in person or by phone.

The complex issues that arise will require many meetings and phone calls to understand correctly. Such meetings are paramount to success as understanding the facts of each case, each industry, and each dispute are critical to properly evaluating a client’s claims or defenses.
