Our Approach to Business Disputes

We represent many small businesses and startup companies in transaction-related disputes involving contracts and office leases. We know the heavy toll litigation can have on small businesses. When appropriate, we look for efficient ways to resolve your dispute without resorting to litigation.

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is one such method. Alternative dispute resolution includes mediation and arbitration. The goal is to help the disputing parties resolve their matter quickly and cost effectively.

  • Arbitration is similar to a trial in that a neutral third party presides over the matter, listens to both sides' cases, and has the authority to issue a binding decision on the parties.
  • Mediation is an ADR technique in which a neutral third party actively helps and encourages the parties to reach an agreement that meets both parties' needs.

Law firm partner James T. Hanvik is a qualified neutral with significant experience in many ADR settings, including both binding and non-binding methods. He served on the state's Supreme Court ADR list for eight years.
