What We Handle
We do not run a volume practice. We choose a select group of high-impact cases and litigate them with integrity at the center.

Whether you are enforcing fiduciary duties, resolving shareholder conflict, or seeking injunctive relief, we bring practiced skill in a court where precision is everything and credibility is currency.
Our litigation focus includes:
- Breach of Contract
- Business Divorce & Partnership Breakups
- Shareholder & Derivative Litigation
- Books & Records Demands (8 Del. C. § 220)
- Fiduciary Duty Breaches
- Intra-Corporate Disputes
Disputes arising under federal and state securities laws

If your case involves integrity, strategy, and principle, we may be the right counsel.
We do not represent everyone, and we do not take every type of matter. We do not typically represent:
- Companies seeking to enforce non-compete clauses against rank-and-file or non-executive employees
- Employers sued by their workers for discrimination, retaliation, or whistleblowing
- Companies looking for legal strategies to fight unionization
- Companies sued for consumer claims or personal injuries
- Companies or Individuals sued for sexual assault or related allegations
- Entities facing regulatory investigations, unless we believe the matter presents a genuinely unique and compelling public interest (e.g., being unfairly targeted due to political or protected conduct)
We are a mission-driven law firm representing Lancaster clients in disputes where integrity and public impact truly matter. If your case fits that mission, we bring disciplined legal strategy and ethical conviction to the fight.

Common Questions About Business Litigation
What does a business litigation attorney do?
We help clients resolve and litigate disputes involving contracts, partners, fiduciary duties, and commercial relationships, aiming to win through smart strategy, strong ethics, and efficient action.
Can I sue my business partner in Pennsylvania?
Yes. Pennsylvania courts regularly hear partner and shareholder disputes, but venue depends on incorporation, operating agreements, and forum clauses. Since many businesses located in Pennsylvania are formed in Delaware, the dispute may properly belong there. We advise based on your documents, structure, and facts.
How much does a business lawsuit cost?
We start with a refundable 15 hour retainer at $695 per hour. You receive a detailed legal roadmap and strategy memo. If you are not satisfied, we refund your funds or waive fees entirely with no surprise billing.
Real Talk: Is This the Right Move?
Don’t blow the whistle because you’re angry.
Blow it because you can’t live with the lie.
If you’ve already spoken up and they came for you—you’re exactly why we exist.
