California Business Dispute Resolution Lawyer
"Can't you just work this out?"
How often have you heard this question lately? Or, even worse:
"Can't we all just get along?"
The reality is "no" you can't always work it out on your own, and you can't always just get along.
If you're facing a long, expensive battle in court due to a broken down contractual relationship, you understand that any business-centered dispute resolution requires more than getting along. Perhaps you've already tried to "work it out" and have had such attempts fail.
You need someone experienced in your corner that can resolve your dispute in a prompt and efficient manner. More importantly, you want to ensure your maximum result.
As a rule, it is best to avoid trials whenever possible. There are alternatives. We can resolve business disputes outside of court by negotiation, mediation and/or arbitration. We provide you with the means to control the outcome of the dispute as much as possible.
Contact The Law Office of Lynnette Ariathurai, A Professional Corporation today and find out how business dispute resolution can benefit your company.
Alternate dispute resolution may save you:
- Time - Litigation can cost your company hundreds or thousands of employee-hours in meetings with your attorneys, depositions, discovery production, and trial testimony.
- Money - Litigation is expensive. Once the issue is joined, you may be at the mercy of your opponent. An opponent with more wealth than you can drag the litigation out until you can no longer afford to fight. Even if you win, you may not be able to recover your attorneys' fees. And if you lose and your opponent recovers its fees, you may find yourself having to pay the lawyers hired by all parties involved!
- Emotional Stress - Litigation is emotionally draining. It is rare to find someone who is not consumed by stress and uncertainty when faced with litigation. This anxiety intensifies as the case continues week after week, month after month.
