Business Litigation and Dispute Resolution

Trial lawyer Craig Wilkerson brings over 15 years of experience. He is known for his courtroom skills and ability to handle complex civil litigation. But he understands that business clients are more often seeking quick, discreet resolutions that limit the expense, distraction and harm to the company's goodwill. Mr. Wilkerson provides plaintiff or defense counsel for all scenarios:

  • Breach of contract (disputes with customers, vendors or business partners)
  • Disputes arising from handshake deals (no formal contract)
  • Internal partnership and shareholder disputes
  • Business dissolution
  • Business torts (unfair practices, fraud, tortious interference)
  • Commercial lease disputes
  • Arbitration and mediation

Most business litigation is less about the small print than the big picture — one party's perception that the other side is getting a great deal or taking advantage through misrepresentation. Without legal counsel to step back, the dispute can quickly escalate into bad blood and counterproductive actions.

Solutions, Not Surprises

It is critical to have realistic expectations about the likely outcome and potential exposure. We approach negotiations or litigation from a worst-case perspective, then maneuver for the most favorable result. Our role is to identity the root issues, anticipate new twists and develop a strategy for engaging the other party. From there, Craig Wilkerson will hash out a workable solution where possible or provide focused representation of your interests in court.
