Would It Surprise You To Learn We Resolve the Vast Majority of Contract Disputes Through Negotiation?
The key to a prompt and efficient resolution is leveraged and productive negotiations. Our attorneys work to construct a thorough, detailed chronology while quickly assessing the associated damages as well as the key issues associated with the business dispute. The Watkins Firm is able to resolve the vast majority of our contract dispute cases through effective, leveraged negotiations informed by a strong chronology and mastery of the damages. This is the fastest and least expensive strategy for managing a breach of contract dispute.
The Victim of a Contract Breach Must Mitigate The Damages to Preserve Their Rights in the Dispute
When we represent clients who are the victim of a breach of contract we provide advice on their requirement to mitigate the damages and other timely, reasonable and prudent actions they are required to take by law to preserve and protect their legal and financial recovery options. For those who are alleged to have caused a breach of contract we review contract details and associated facts and work to develop a quick solution.
Mediation and Arbitration
Most breach of contract cases which cannot be resolved through effective, leveraged negotiation are resolved through mediation or a settlement conference. Mediation is a private, confidential setting for managing a breach of contract dispute which keeps the details of your legal and financial matters out of the public eye while fostering an environment to identify potential resolution(s) and ultimately settle the matter.
Binding arbitration is quite often the last step in a complex breach of contract matter. Many contracts specify arbitration as an alternative to an expensive, time-consuming trial. You need the proven experience of the Watkins Firm as you prepare for arbitration. The arbitrator has the authority to establish the process to marshal the evidence and collect witness testimony, usually over a few days. The decision of the arbitrator cannot be appealed in a binding arbitration except in very rare instances of collusion.
