Complex Business & Commercial Litigation

Representing businesses and individuals in resolving complex contract disputes between businesses, government entities, and individuals. Our attorneys represent clients in cases involving breach of contract, Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) matters, business torts, fraud, and unfair competition, as well as related issues that often arise in multi-party or cross-industry litigation.

We handle breach of contract cases at every level of complexity, from commercial agreements and joint ventures to distribution, licensing, and professional services contracts. Our lawyers identify contract ambiguities, assess damages, and enforce performance obligations through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, motions, or trial.

When conflicts arise, The Freedman Firm represents clients in litigation and investigations involving breach of fiduciary duty, shareholder demands, and allegations of corporate misconduct.

Resolving ownership and management conflicts, buyout disputes, minority shareholder claims, and business dissolution matters for business owners, executives, and investors. These conflicts often strike at the core of a company’s leadership and financial stability, making swift, strategic action essential. Our attorneys understand that disagreements between partners, shareholders, or members can be costly, distract from operations, and jeopardize both relationships and revenue.

We work closely with clients to assess their objectives and pursue practical, business-driven solutions that protect ownership interests and preserve value. Whenever possible, we seek resolution through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration — but when litigation is required, our trial lawyers are fully prepared to take cases through verdict.

When fraud or misconduct allegations intersect with potential criminal exposure, our clients benefit from the firm’s deep experience in white collar defense — an advantage that allows us to protect both business and personal interests simultaneously.

Defending against allegations of fraud, misrepresentation, or False Claims Act violations, and representing both defendants and relators in whistleblower actions. Our attorneys are known for efficiently identifying weaknesses in fraud claims and leveraging those insights to achieve dismissals, favorable settlements, or trial victories.

We have successfully defended companies, executives, and professionals in matters involving fraud, misrepresentation, and RICO claims, as well as whistleblower and government contractor cases. In some instances, we have persuaded the government not to prosecute or intervene in qui tam actions, helping clients resolve matters quietly and efficiently.

Because civil fraud and False Claims Act disputes often overlap with criminal investigations, our deep experience in white collar defense — including healthcare, securities, and government fraud — allows us to provide comprehensive, coordinated representation. The result is a defense strategy that protects not only our clients’ legal interests, but also their reputation and long-term business goals.

Defends companies, executives, and institutions in class actions where financial exposure and reputational risk are substantial. The elimination or mitigation of a class action’s massive risk is at the center of our strategy. Our attorneys have obtained numerous denials of class certification and dismissals of claims in complex cases involving alleged product defects, employment practices, and financial services.

We are skilled at enforcing arbitration clauses and class action waivers, and when a class is certified, we manage discovery strategically and efficiently — always with an eye toward summary judgment or favorable resolution. Where appropriate, we pursue creative and cost-effective settlements that protect our clients’ interests while minimizing disruption to their operations.

Because high-profile class actions often attract the attention of state attorneys general and regulatory enforcement agencies, we leverage the firm’s deep white collar and civil fraud experience to provide clients with coordinated defense across civil, criminal, and regulatory fronts.

Our representative matters include victories at every stage of litigation — from early dismissals and appellate reversals to favorable global settlements — achieved through disciplined advocacy and strategic foresight.
