Commercial Litigation

Importance of protecting businesses

We understand the importance of protecting businesses that our clients have worked hard to build, and that disputes can be an unavoidable aspect in any industry. Whether our client’s company is large or small, commercial litigation can tie up resources, rack up unwanted expenses in court fees, and derail the momentum of the company. It’s essential to bring legal assistance early to cover all bases and protect the interests of the business.

Long, drawn-out commercial litigation is best circumvented by bringing in a qualified legal team that can effectively evaluate the business and the dispute at hand to create a strong action plan to bring about resolution swiftly.

Thrift McLemore has earned a high-caliber reputation for creative and rational representation, on par with that of the largest law firms in the region. Regardless of where the litigation stems from, our firm is dedicated to providing efficient and effective commercial litigation services to address our clients’ current legal concerns and to protect their future business interests.

Our Aim

Our aim is to tailor our legal strategies to both the client’s needs and the changing dynamics of each claim. We work closely with our clients to define the ideal “end goal” from the outset, so as not to unnecessarily prolong the timeline of a dispute. This is accomplished by focusing not just on the dispute at hand, but on careful review of our client’s background and needs, as well as looking at realistic outcomes that meet the goals and budget of each client.

In our end goal approach, the goal is not only to bring our clients out on top of the dispute but also to ensure that the goal is met most efficiently and cost-effectively. Success is about winning not just the case itself, but in protecting the resources of our clients so that they can quickly get back to business as usual once the matter is resolved. Our attorneys seek out early resolution through negotiation to achieve our clients’ goals whenever possible to protect their best interests. However, when negotiations do not lead to the desired outcome, our attorneys will take disputes to court to make that end goal a reality.

We also strive to ensure that our practices are in line with the size of the case itself, so that our firm assigns the right amount of resources to each case. This means no “over lawyering” by assigning too many attorneys to the case—by working with our clients to develop the end goal at the outset, we’re able to appropriately allocate resources so that each case is thoroughly prepared and achieves the optimal results without overburdening our clients.
