Business Litigation
Breach of contract? That is the main category of business litigation. But when there is a contract dispute, you may have other related claims, especially if there is a breach of contract between businesses or between a business and an individual. For example, business fraud, unfair and deceptive trade practices, or even a breach of the duty of good faith.

Class Action
When big companies, like banks, commit fraud or decide to breach a contract with their own customers on purpose, they may only cost you a little bit of money, but they can make a fortune when you are one of hundreds or thousands they took advantage of in the exact same way. Often, a class action lawsuit is the only way to stop them from doing the same thing over and over to you and others just like you. To learn more about how we can help you and other victims recover damages, including punitive damages, from big corporations and stop them from doing the same thing again, you should click here.
Eminent Domain
When NCDOT takes your land, they are supposed to pay you “just compensation”. The same is true when it’s
- a city, town or county taking your land
- a public utility, like Progress Energy or PSNC, running a line through your property or
- a school board, an airport authority, or some other transportation authority.
The law may let them take your property, but it also requires them to pay you just compensation. But eminent domain law in North Carolina is very different than in other other states. It has its own special rules and procedures about what “just compensation” means and how you have to prove how much you are owed. How much money you can get depends a lot on just who is taking your land and what kind of project they are taking it for. To learn more about how we can help make sure you get all of the just compensation you are owed, you should click here.
