Types of Business & Civil Disputes I Handle

We represent individuals and businesses in civil litigation across Bucks County and southeastern Pennsylvania. Every case starts with the same question: Is this fight worth the cost? We assess collectability, damages exposure, and litigation cost before recommending a path forward.

Business & Commercial Disputes

Breach of contract: The foundation of commercial litigation. One party failed to perform under a written or oral agreement. We handle everything from unpaid invoices to complex multi-party contract disputes. Partnership and LLC disputes: Member deadlock, fiduciary breaches, profit disputes, and forced buyouts; these cases are intensely personal and document-dependent. Business dissolution: When the business relationship is irreparably broken, judicial dissolution under 15 Pa.C.S. § 8871(a)(4) (LLCs) or § 1981 (corporations) may be the only exit. Non-compete enforcement: For both employers protecting trade secrets and employees being restrained from earning a living, enforceability depends on reasonableness. See our dedicated section. Commercial lease disputes: Rent disputes, CAM allocation fights, confession of judgment defense, and lease termination.

Property Disputes

Partition actions: Forcing the sale or division of co-owned property when co-owners cannot agree, the most common remedy for inherited property disputes and unmarried couples who split. Boundary disputes and quiet title: When a survey reveals the fence is in the wrong place, or a neighbor's structure encroaches. Easement disputes: Scope, obstruction, and maintenance of access and utility easements. Construction disputes: Defective work, mechanic's liens, and payment disputes between owners, general contractors, and subcontractors.

General Civil Litigation

Consumer protection: UTPCPL claims with treble damages and fee-shifting. See our Consumer Protection section. Personal injury: Motor vehicle accidents, premises liability, and assault claims. Fraud and misrepresentation: Intentional deceit causing financial harm. Creditor's rights: Judgment enforcement, writs of execution, bank levies, and asset discovery. Note that in Pennsylvania wages are generally exempt from attachment under 42 Pa.C.S. § 8127, so ordinary money judgments cannot be collected by wage garnishment.
