Business vs. business

In a Dispute With Another Business?

Commercial disputes are different from consumer ones. Both sides usually have contracts, paper, and at least some sophistication. That means cases turn on documents and deadlines, not sympathy. The side that builds the cleaner record almost always wins or settles favorably.

Start with the contract

Pull every document: the master agreement, the statement of work, the purchase orders, the emails that modified the deal, the invoices, and any notices of default. Read the dispute-resolution clause first — it controls where, how, and even whether you can sue. Many contracts require notice and a cure period before any claim.

Demand with specifics

A good commercial demand letter quotes the contract provisions, lists the dollars owed or damages incurred, attaches the proof, and sets a hard deadline. Vague threats get ignored. Specific demands force the other side's lawyer to evaluate exposure, which is how settlements actually happen.

Court, arbitration, or settlement

If the matter does not resolve, we file in the right forum — usually New York Supreme Court Commercial Division for larger cases, Civil Court for smaller ones, or AAA arbitration when the contract requires it. The goal is always the same: a clean, enforceable recovery, fast.
