Business Torts
Fraud, tortious interference with contract, and theft of trade secrets are frequent claims in commercial litigation. Our attorneys have extensive experience pursuing and defending against disputes involving business torts, including:
- Conversion of funds, embezzlement and kickback schemes involving employees and vendors
- Fraud
- Negligent misrepresentation
- Libel, slander and business defamation
- Tortious interference with contractual relationships
- Federal and State RICO
- Usurpation of corporate opportunities
- Fair Business Practices Act and other statutory claims
Whether or not these claims create liability, they risk reputational harm and punitive damages. These claims often arise on an emergency basis, and we have assisted many clients with seeking a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, or defending such claims. We have handled trials and appeals of these types of claims in lawsuits and arbitrations throughout the country.
