Contracting is an essential aspect of commerce. All types of businesses rely on contracts in numerous different capacities, from their IT services to their relationships with their customers. When parties adhere to the terms of their contracts, things usually go fairly smoothly. But, when a party breaches the terms of a contract, the direct and indirect costs can begin to add up quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We handle disputes involving all types of leased properties, including manufacturing, industrial, warehouse, office, entertainment, and retail locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Customer Contracts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Contract disputes with customers can involve unique dynamics, as resorting to litigation against a customer will not necessarily be in a company’s best interests. However, companies must also take appropriate legal action to protect their assets and business interests, and they must be careful not to set a precedent of allowing their customers to violate the terms of their agreements without recourse. Our attorneys have extensive experience addressing these types of considerations in contract disputes, and we can help your company make informed and strategic decisions moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Government Contracts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Government contract disputes present unique risks and unique challenges for private contractors. At Oberheiden P.C.<\/a>, we have particular experience in the government sector, and we represent companies in dispute resolution proceedings involving government contract performance as well as federal investigations targeting allegations of government contract fraud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

License and Franchise Agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We handle disputes involving software, patent, trademark, and other intellectual property (IP) licenses as well as disputes between franchisors and franchisees. We represent licensors and licensees; and, in complex IP licensing disputes, we work closely with our clients’ key stakeholders and outside experts as necessary in order to clearly establish our clients’ exclusive intellectual property rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Merger and Acquisition Agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are high-stakes transactions, and contractual disputes have the potential to lead to litigation prior to and after closing. We represent buyers and sellers in litigation and ADR involving M&A transactions of all sizes, and we have experience working with clients in all major industries and business sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partnership and Shareholder Agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Disputes arising under partnership and shareholder agreements can threaten companies’ sustainability and present significant financial risks for the business owners involved. These disputes can involve various issues, from disagreements regarding the company’s direction to allegations of misappropriating company funds, and they can have a variety of potential outcomes depending on the circumstances at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Purchase and Sale Agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our breach of contract litigation practice encompasses the representation of commercial entities in disputes involving all types of purchase and sale agreements, from transactions governed by Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) to commercial real estate sales and acquisitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
