Experienced Trial Lawyers Who Can Protect Your Vital Business Interests
We're probably best known for our success in an antitrust lawsuit that exposed price-fixing practices in the California natural gas market — the value of that victory has reached $4 billion and it's still growing.
Most of our business litigation practice, however, takes place on a more modest scale — breach of contract claims, commercial real estate disputes, business torts and insurance coverage questions. Whether you're running a family business or the general counsel's office of a major corporation, you can depend on Baker, Burton & Lundy for skilled handling of your claim or defense.
Examples of the kinds of business litigation cases we handle include:
- Contract enforcement actions with customers, vendors, distributors or licensees
- Intellectual property and trade secrets protection
- Corporate or partnership disputes
- Commercial lease disputes
- Specific performance of real estate purchase agreements
- Employment discrimination or sexual harassment claims
- Severance agreement enforcement
- Regulatory actions and code violation hearings
- Business or professional license actions, especially in the real estate industry
- Antitrust, unfair competition or unfair business practices claims
- Insurance coverage disputes
- Residential real estate litigation
While we don't rush our clients into court, we've found over the years that a strong negotiating position usually depends upon solid trial preparation. We therefore prepare your case for court whenever a dispute appears headed that way.
