Determining the Best Strategy for Our Clients' Needs
Our attorneys are adept at determining the best approach to resolving matters such as these. As skilled trial lawyers, they know that a trial is not the best approach for every case. Negotiations and mediation may be more cost-effective approaches. Additionally, many contracts require that parties use mediation and arbitration to resolve disputes. Our attorneys have represented litigants before arbitration panels affiliated with the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and similar institutions. Our Firm philosophy includes a careful understanding of how a particular forum to resolve conflict may be appropriate for a particular client's goals and resources. An understanding of alternative dispute resolution options is paramount to meeting these ideals, and Deans & Lyons' commitment to its clients includes a vast experience in all litigation forums, not just the courtroom.
Our Service to Clients
Our business litigation clients include construction project owners and general contractors, large Fortune 50 to Fortune 1000 corporations, investment groups, oil and gas companies, small, closely-held partnerships and business entities, banking institutions, joint ventures, real estate companies, and shareholders and private individuals. Commercial litigation should not be about who has the resources to prevail. To this end, we employ our experience with business litigation matters along with the extensive technical resources of our law firm to develop cases with surgically precise, razor-sharp efficiency, eliminating waste and fostering resource conservation for the client.
