BUSINESS DISPUTES

Guy has extensive experience in handling complex commercial disputes for small and medium-sized companies that have suffered losses or harm in their business operations as a result of fraud, breaches of fiduciary duty, unfair competition practices, contract interference, and other forms of "business torts." He typically handles commercial disputes on a contingency or flat-fee basis, thereby aligning the interests of the client and the firm and promoting efficient handling of all matters.

He believes in keeping clients informed and involved at every stage of the legal process, which reduces the possibility of surprises in the outcome. Additionally, he advises corporations on how to reduce their risk of being sued by adopting various practices and approaches to avoid litigation in the future, which can benefit their business clients.
