South Florida Law offers a wide range of legal services related to commercial litigation, including:

Arbitration and Mediation

Our attorneys are experienced in alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation and arbitration, which can shorten the litigation process and often be a faster and less expensive option than going to court.

We have experience in representing both contractors and developers in construction defect disputes, and can assist in resolving disputes related to defects in design or construction. Our litigation attorneys are well versed in all the nuances of Florida Statutes 558, which govern legal action related to construction defects.

Courtroom Litigation

Our attorneys have extensive experience in litigation proceedings, equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge to represent you effectively at every stage of the legal process. Our legal professionals are adept at navigating the intricate discovery phase, where they can meticulously gather and analyze relevant evidence, documents, and testimonies to build a strong case on your behalf.

South Florida Law attorneys are well-versed in drafting and arguing various motions, which can shape the course of the litigation and potentially lead to favorable rulings. Our ability to articulate compelling arguments and counter opposing motions is a valuable asset in protecting your interests.

Should the matter proceed to trial, our attorneys are highly skilled in courtroom advocacy. They excel in presenting evidence, examining witnesses, and delivering persuasive opening and closing statements to effectively convey your position to the judge or, if applicable, a jury. Our trial experience and strategic approach can significantly impact the outcome of your case.

Additionally, our attorneys are proficient in handling appeals processes, ensuring that your rights are upheld and any potential legal errors or injustices are addressed.

Negotiation of Settlements

Our attorneys are experienced in negotiation, and can assist in settling disputes before they go to trial, which can save you time and money. When representing the plaintiff in a case, our attorneys have the experience to identify when a company or other entity is “low balling” a settlement by grossly undervaluing the damages due. If this is ever the case, our South Florida attorneys will advise you against accepting the offer and instead seek another venue more likely to result in higher damages for you or your business.

Business and Contract Disputes

If your company is facing such dispute with its stakeholders, our in business law and commercial litigation attorneys can provide the necessary protection and representation you need to prevail. Lawsuits in this domain can be intricate, often involving breaches of contract, disputes among shareholders, and ownership complexities across multiple business entities, leading to confusion and potential impartiality concerns. In such circumstances, it is imperative to seek guidance from an experienced civil litigation attorney. The attorneys at South Florida Law can handle the legal intricacies, safeguard your interests, and work towards a favorable resolution.

Landlord-Tenant Disputes

Landlord-tenant disputes can arise from various issues, such as rent payments, property maintenance, and eviction proceedings. It is crucial for both parties to understand their respective rights and obligations. If attempts to resolve a conflict regarding damages or other matters have been unsuccessful, further action may be necessary. This could involve filing a lawsuit, submitting a fair housing complaint, or seeking experienced legal representation for eviction defense. Regardless of whether you are a tenant or landlord, consulting a civil litigation attorney who specializes in landlord-tenant matters can be beneficial. They can review the lease agreement, ensure your rights are protected, and assist in reaching a settlement acceptable to both parties.

Shareholder and Partnership Disputes

Establishing shareholder or partnership agreements is a critical component of building a solid foundation for your business. The primary objective is to facilitate the growth and success of the company. However, conflicts can sometimes arise between management and shareholders, leading to disagreements. These disputes can prove costly and hinder the business from achieving its full potential. In such situations, it is advisable to seek the assistance of an experienced civil litigation attorney. An experienced legal professional from South Florida Law can safeguard your rights and guide you through the process of resolving the dispute, ensuring that the interests of all parties are protected and the business can continue to thrive.

Many cases involve the breach of fiduciary responsibilities, such as mismanagement of funds or conflicts of interest.
