in Commercial Litigation
Payton & Associates, LLC understands that effective advocacy in commercial litigation and arbitration begins with in-depth research, a deep knowledge of legal procedures and true commitment to our clients. From that foundation, our firm builds a strong legal framework to support our client’s position, determining facts, seeking evidence, tapping professional expertise and using our well-honed trial skills.
To resolve a high-stakes shareholders’ dispute, for example, our firm engaged one of the world’s experts on ink dating to show that a signature on a 1997 contract had actually been signed in the last six months. In a $7 million commercial foreclosure case, our team carefully reviewed the bank’s loan documentation, including the original application, resulting in a settlement that saved our clients nearly $4 million.
These are two examples of how Payton & Associates, LLC, serves domestic and international corporations and high-net-worth individuals in complex business litigation and related practice areas.
We represent clients in cases involving commercial real estate and construction litigation, shareholder and partnership disputes, fine art litigation and probate and other estate administration disputes.
