Experience Handling Business Torts
Our business attorneys represent plaintiffs and defendants in business litigation, arbitration and meditation. We understand that litigation is an undesirable part of any business relationship. We also understand the expense associated with pursuing and defending cases in business-related litigation; therefore, our attorneys make every effort to limit the scope of any business litigation and provide efficient and expedient resolutions.
In most business disputes, there is a window of opportunity during which expensive business litigation can be avoided. We pride ourselves on creating and recognizing the opportunity to equitably resolve business disputes before thousands of dollars are spent on litigation.
Nevertheless, our experienced Texas business attorneys have significant trial experience and will never encourage a client to accept an unsatisfactory compromise. When necessary, we will vigorously pursue a claim. Our firm has an exceptional reputation for negotiating the pretrial and trial phase of business litigation, including document production and filing of appropriate motions to limit the scope of the case.
A History of Successful Business Representation
At Abraham, Watkins, Nichols, Sorrels, Agosto & Friend, we have earned a reputation for successfully handling a wide variety of business litigation. Our business litigation group is headed by a former president of the Houston Bar Association.
But we do not rest on our laurels. Our attorneys realize that reputations do not win business litigation cases and that most businesses are represented by quality attorneys; therefore, we handle each business litigation case as if our reputation depended on it.
