Business and Commercial Litigation

New York City Business Litigation Attorneys

At Tolmage, Peskin, Harris & Falick, we are aggressive business litigation lawyers who diligently represent clients throughout the New York, New York area. Regardless of whether you are a plaintiff or a defendant involved in a commercial litigation matter pending in state or federal court, we can help you.

Upon taking your case, we will conduct a detailed investigation of the facts in order to establish effective strategies for you. If your situation involves a breach of contract, we will review the relevant documents to determine the best course of action. While most civil litigation cases settle, and we believe that it is wise not to delay resolution of a case if it is in your best interest, we do not hesitate to take a case to trial if it will provide you the best outcome. Some cases cannot be resolved through settlement negotiations, and it is only after going to trial and vigorous cross-examination of the witnesses that a resolution can be reached.

Whether your case involves a breach of contract fraud, or another commercial law matter, our firm has both the experience and record of success in handling commercial law cases. Our New York City lawyers have successfully had cases transferred from inconvenient forums to the jurisdiction where our client is located or does business, which may give them a "home court" advantage. When representing commercial defendants, we have been successful in prevailing on counterclaims and enforcing judgments in favor of our clients.

We have successfully litigated and settled cases for our clients, but we also believe in taking a holistic and proactive approach to client representation. While one legal issue may have been resolved, there may be other outstanding issues related to how you do business, and you may be susceptible to future litigation. At Tolmage, Peskin, Harris & Falick, we will consult with you and provide you advice for your entire business. In addition, we can bring in other professionals to ensure that all your business needs are met and all your bases are covered. The goal is to prevent or avoid legal problems in the future and protect you from the possibility of a lawsuit.

At Tolmage, Peskin, Harris & Falick, we have unique experience in helping individual and corporate clients involved in civil litigation matters. Persistence and hard work are vital, and we provide both in representing you. We try to humanize our large corporate clients by making sure that the court and jury know that you are the victim in this matter, and the litigation has affected the company beyond just the loss of revenue. The suit could affect your entire operation, causing you to suffer significant damages and threatening the existence of your company.

Many cases that come to our office involve allegations of a violation of an agreement between two parties. A breach of contract occurs when one party violates the terms of a written agreement. At Tolmage, Peskin, Harris & Falick, we have successfully represented clients in various industries in situations where one party has violated the terms of a written agreement or where our client was accused of breach of contract.

If you are a plaintiff or defendant in a commercial litigation case, you want an attorney who will work hard to defend you or your company. We can help you. For more information, or to schedule an appointment, please contact Tolmage, Peskin, Harris & Falick.
