Plaintiff's Injury Group > Contingency Fee Commercial Cases
More than 35 verdicts and settlements exceeding one million dollars.

Quite often, disputes arise out of business transactions that require litigation. Our creative approach to handling business litigation has led us to accept commercial litigation claims on a contingent-fee basis, or if preferred, a blended-fee arrangement that includes a reduced hourly rate and a percentage success fee contingent on the outcome of the dispute. Under either arrangement, our interests are aligned with yours, and we keep our eye on the goal – a full and fair recovery for our clients. Often, for smaller companies or individuals involved in a dispute with a much larger organization, hiring a highly competent commercial litigation on a contingency-fee basis can mean the difference between obtaining satisfaction and simply having to suffer the transgression or write the experience off as the cost of doing business. Individuals who have suffered substantial damages as a result of business torts can seek a fair resolution of their dispute without having to pay tens of thousands of dollars in up front legal costs to expensive hourly rate commercial firms.

The types of commercial cases we handle include:
  • Breach of contract
  • Interference with contractual relations
  • Misappropriation of trade secrets
  • Real estate disputes
  • Construction disputes
  • Shareholder disputes
  • Fraud
  • Breach of fiduciary duty
