What We Do at Equal Justice Solutions
We Serve Clients in New York with Consequence. Not Complaints.
At Equal Justice Solutions, we focus on matters that truly matter ethically, financially, and spiritually. We take on clients in New York whose cases involve true harm, substantial stakes, and real chances for justice or systemic change.
We defend truth-tellers in dangerous places. From SEC, IRS, healthcare, and False Claims Act whistleblowers to employees fired for speaking up against misconduct, we fight with federal reach and moral clarity.
We represent the voiceless—the trafficked, the sexually abused, the neglected—especially when the cover-up is worse than the harm. These are more than legal cases. They’re sacred ones.
We fight for investors, pension holders, and ordinary people who’ve been deceived, defrauded, or financially wiped out by brokers, funds, and so-called fiduciaries.
Commercial Litigation
We represent founders, investors, and leadership teams in bet-the-company disputes—securities litigation, company breakdowns, internal misconduct, and commercial fraud.

At Equal Justice Solutions, we serve professionals, workers, and whistleblowers who’ve been silenced, sidelined, or terminated for doing the right thing. We aren’t a volume shop. We’re not here for drama or delay.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is commercial litigation?
The purpose of commercial litigation is clear. It strives for a court order. This order mandates that the other party either take action, stop a certain behavior, or pay what is due. If they fail to follow the judgment, the court steps in again to enforce the ruling through asset seizures, fines, garnishments, or contempt. In essence, litigation secures an enforceable decision and the means to enforce it.
Who does a commercial litigation lawyer represent?
A commercial litigation lawyer serves clients who need a legal solution for business disputes. Typically, this includes companies, business owners, partners, or individuals in commercial relationships who turn to the court for assistance in defining rights, enforcing contracts, stopping illegal activity, or recovering damages. Our work revolves around gathering evidence, applying the law, and securing a judgment that delivers tangible results.
Who does a commerical litigation lawyer NOT represent?
At Equal Justice Solutions, our commercial litigation lawyers do not take on clients in New York who want to use the legal system to fulfill non-legal goals.
- It is not personal validation.
- It’s not an ego battle.
- It’s not to ‘stick it to’ a former partner.
Our goal is clear: to help you secure what the law entitles you to, be it money, shares, ownership, a buyout, or another entitlement. Nothing more, nothing less.
Is a commercial litigation lawyer right for me?
The answer depends on your specific needs and expectations. If you are considering commercial litigation, you must approach it with a realistic understanding of what litigation can deliver. A lawsuit helps resolve legal rights and obligations, but it won’t fix emotions or deliver a sense of sweeping justice. When expectations move into those areas, disappointment is likely to follow. From our experience, long-lasting business disputes often share one characteristic: someone’s ego is driving the decision-making.
A commercial litigation lawyer is the right choice when you seek a legal remedy, understand the scope of what the law can provide, and are prepared to make decisions based on logical reasoning instead of emotional impulses.
If you can embrace the legal process as a means to resolve disputes and are ready to manage your expectations, a commercial litigation lawyer will be your ideal partner in finding a practical and effective solution.
When is commercial litigation worth it?
Claims under $100,000: Pursuing these claims is typically not worthwhile unless the issue involves a clear breach of contract with a solvent defendant and no solid defenses. Spending $100,000 to recover the same amount generally results in a break-even scenario, before considering the stress, delays, and uncertainty involved. Even with our Small Business Program, most disputes below six figures are better regarded as a loss.
Claims over $1,000,000: These claims are almost always worth pursuing. Even with litigation costs potentially reaching $400,000 to $500,000 over two years, the return is usually favorable, and these actions often serve to protect the business or establish crucial industry standards.
Claims Between $100,000 and $1,000,000: This is the gray zone where the decision depends on various factors. These include the complexity of the case, the strength of the expected defenses, the opponent’s ability to fulfill a judgment, the likelihood of success, and the business’s overall risk tolerance.
How much does a commercial litigation lawyer cost?
Equal Justice Solutions charges a standard rate of $695 per hour, which is relatively affordable compared to many top-tier law firms, especially in places like New York and Delaware, where hourly rates can reach $1,200 to $1,500. In fact, Delaware courts have stated that $900 per hour is a reasonable rate for commercial litigation attorneys handling major cases.
Complex commercial litigation involves considerable labor. Here’s a rough breakdown of how the work usually progresses:
100 to 200 hours to get past the pleadings (motion to dismiss, etc.)
100 to 200 hours for document discovery
200+ hours for depositions
200 to 400 hours for trial prep
400+ hours for the trial itself
In total, that amounts to about 1,000 hours. When a case involves business torts or other fact-heavy claims, the work typically leans toward the higher end of this range. If the case calls for a team of attorneys, the number of hours required grows even further.
How long will my case take with law firms that handle disputes of this kind?
The duration of your case will be influenced by factors like the specifics of the case, the number of witnesses involved, the breadth of the documents, and the court’s schedule. Complex business or securities litigation cases tend to take more time due to the need for in-depth analysis and careful discovery. If the case advances to trial, our experienced trial lawyers will handle the case through state and federal courts until a judgment is reached. This process can often take several years to complete.
Why will your law firm not take a commercial case on pure contingency in federal courts?
At Equal Justice Solutions, we do not take on commercial cases on pure contingency because it creates an unstable financial arrangement for both the client and the attorney. Commercial litigation is unpredictable, fact-heavy, and dependent on various elements such as evidence, witnesses, discovery, and the behavior of the parties over time. When we cover all expenses such as time, staff, filings, and expert fees without any financial contribution from the client, we take on a risk that no responsible commercial litigator should assume. If the defendant cannot pay, if there are appeals, or if the defendant disappears, the financial loss is solely ours.
Our commitment is to pursue justice with fairness, and this requires a fee structure that ensures steady, responsible work while sharing the financial risks of the case, rather than placing them solely on our firm.
