Our proprietary chronology and damage assessment process provides the leverage required to get the other party’s attention and drive the matter to a negotiated and successful conclusion.
We Know How to Handle a Business Lawsuit in San Diego
After more than 40 years of proven, successful experience we know how to handle a business lawsuit in San Diego. In some cases the issues are quite legally and/or financially complex, or there is a matter of genuine principled disagreement. In these cases business mediation can serve as an efficient and timely alternative. As your representatives, we work with the mediator and representatives of other parties to establish a calm, productive working environment focused upon specific issues to be resolved. The role of the mediator is to help the parties to understand their own and each other’s position more effectively and to guide the parties to a resolution based upon the mediator’s extensive facilitation skills as well as a detailed knowledge of the business issues at hand. The goal of mediation is a signed settlement agreement that resolves the matter entirely.
Many business contracts require arbitration as an alternative to a trial. Arbitration is a much more structured legal venue, however it is not as easily exploited as the rules of law and evidence one would encounter at trial. The arbitration is governed by a third party “neutral” with extensive experience in the matters associated with the dispute and underlying laws. The arbiter has complete authority to establish the process and marshal the evidence. The arbitrator usually receives initial briefs from each side, then gathers testimony and any additional evidence needed to render a decision in the case. The decision of the arbitrator in binding arbitration is final and cannot be appealed (except in very rare instances involving collusion or fraud).
When necessary the business dispute attorneys at the Watkins Firm are prepared represent you at trial as well.
