Personal injury cases frequently stem from car accidents and truck accidents that cause serious injuries as a result of a driver’s carelessness or disregard for safety. The person who sustains the serious injuries may have a legal right to seek compensation from the at-fault driver and recover their insurance company. In some cases, a wrongful death case can be brought when a third party’s negligence results in the death of a family member.

Breach of Contract — A failure to fulfill the terms of a contract agreed to by two or more parties may be the basis of litigation involving breach of contract.
Business Fraud — Some contract disputes may arise as a result of business fraud. You acted in good faith entering a contract for goods, services or property and have a right to expect honest treatment. If another individual or business misrepresented a material fact and you relied upon that information to enter a contract and your business was financially harmed, you may be a victim of business fraud.
Interference with a Contract — Businesses face competition. But if another individual or business illegally interfered with your contractual relations with a third party, a lawsuit based on tortuous interference may allow you to recover monetary damages for the harm your business sustained. A valid contract must be in existence, and there must be an intentional breach.
Breach of Fiduciary Responsibility — A fiduciary duty is a legal obligation to act in the best interest of another party. A fiduciary includes relations such a trustee, corporate board member, corporate officer, or administrator. A corporate board member has a special duty to act in the best interest of company shareholders. A breach of that legal obligation represents a violation of fiduciary responsibility.
Deceptive Trade Practices — Deceptive trade practices take many forms including the provision of goods and services, consumer transactions, and commerce. Alabama and federal laws prohibit deceptive practices that result in misleading the recipients of goods or services. False representation of the characteristics, benefits or certification of a good or services constitutes a deceptive trade practice.
Trademark Infringement — A company relies on its trademarks to distinguish its products and services from those of competitors. Trademarks are a valuable asset. Trademark infringement involves the unauthorized use or appropriation of a trademark in connection with goods and services that is likely to create confusion or deception about the source of the goods. Business litigation over trademark infringement may provide monetary relief for damage as well as an injunction against further unauthorized use of the trademark.
Shareholder Rights – Shareholders at times find themselves at odds with majority ownership or need advice on enforcing shareholder rights.
Insurance Disputes – Businesses rely on insurance coverage when losses occur. If an insurance company refuses to honor its agreement the only recourse a business has is the court system. Unfortunately, businesses often have to pursue bad faith and breach of contract claims to obtain coverage.
