General Business and Contract Litigation
We understand that business and contract disputes can be very expensive and time-consuming. They also distract business owners from what they do best—running their business and earning profits. When our business clients find themselves enmeshed in litigation, they often tell us what a headache it is, and how much they would prefer to be spending their time operating their business—not dealing with lawyers. We like to tell our clients to let their headaches become ours.We also understand that all businesses are unique, and that what may be the right approach for one client, may not be for another. Our commercial litigators will step in and craft effective, cost-efficient and unique strategies, with the ultimate goal of achieving the best possible result, for clients large and small,while minimizing unnecessary costs and disruptions.Sonkin • Koberna’s trial lawyers routinely pursue and defend a wide variety of business and contract disputes in state and federal court (as well as through many forms of alternative dispute resolution), from very complex matters involving multi-million dollar damage claims to smaller cases involving only a few thousand dollars.

- UCC-related matters
- Vendor, supply and distribution agreements

- Business torts, such as contract interference and unfair competition
At Sonkin • Koberna, we are willing to explore alternative fee arrangements with our clients, and to share the risk of recovery in the right case.

And if the best or only solution is to go to trial to protect your interests, our litigators have the experience and unwavering tenacity needed to do so.
