- 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)

Small Business Legal Support Program

- Your legal spend supports our broader mission to provide legal help to the poor, the vulnerable, and those priced out of representation, including our pro bono program.
Micah 6:8 guides our practice to speak truth, act justly, and walk humbly. That does not require shared faith from our clients, but it does require unwavering integrity from us, even when compromise would be easier.

Common Questions About Business Litigation
What does a business litigation attorney do?
We guide clients through disputes involving contracts, partners, governance duties, and commercial relationships, working to win with disciplined strategy, ethical clarity, and efficient use of time.
Can I sue my business partner in Pennsylvania?
Yes. Partner and shareholder disputes are frequently litigated in Pennsylvania, though the proper venue depends on corporate formation and governing documents. Many businesses operating in Pennsylvania are formed in Delaware, which can require filing there instead. We assess venue based on your specific circumstances.
How much does a business lawsuit cost?
We begin with a refundable 15 hour retainer at $695 per hour. You receive a written roadmap and strategy memo that lays out risks and options. If you are not satisfied, we return 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.
