SERIOUS REPRESENTATION FOR SIGNIFICANT LEGAL DISPUTES

Howard Stallings Law Firm represents plaintiffs and defendants in significant contract disputes, including commercial leases, contracts for the sale of land, employment agreements, covenants-not-to-compete, promissory notes, and guaranty agreements. We represent lending institutions in various actions, including lender liability, collections, loan workouts, foreclosures, and business bankruptcies. We protect the rights of residential and commercial property owners in eminent domain actions.

We also represent injured parties in personal injury lawsuits, and next-of-kin in wrongful death claims. We manage these cases on contingency, so the client pays no attorney fees until we obtain a monetary recovery.

CHOOSING ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION WHEN IT’S THE BEST PATH TOWARD OUR CLIENT’S GOALS

Some cases must go to trial but it’s often more beneficial to the client if the attorney finds another path to resolve the dispute. At Howard Stallings Law Firm, the client’s best interests are our guiding principle. Our attorneys employ various forms of alternative dispute resolution, including arbitration before both general and specialized arbitration panels and mediated settlement conferences.
