WHAT IS BUSINESS AND COMMERCIAL LAW?
Business and commercial law are typically lumped together because they go hand-in-hand so often. The best attorneys familiar with one are trained in the other.

Business law, which covers both state and federal statutes, generally encompasses issues such as stocks, investments, workplace safety, employment laws, and the environment. Commercial law is a set of regulations that govern commercial transactions.

Business owners are often fiercely independent individuals and would love nothing more than to manage their own business transactions. But when it comes to the complex rules and regulations surrounding commercial and business litigation, even the most experienced business owners need effective legal counsel. Do not put your company at risk by trying to handle your own commercial legal matters. Speak to a commercial litigation lawyer in our Cincinnati, Ohio office before it is too late at 800-318-9815 so we can help you with your situation.

WHAT TYPES OF BUSINESS/COMMERCIAL LAW CASES DOES BURG SIMPSON HANDLE?

CONTRACT DISPUTES

There’s no area of business that needs the perspective of objective legal counsel more than contract disputes. An experienced attorney can tell you when it’s possible to negotiate and avoid time-consuming and expensive litigation and when it’s time to take the matter to court. Call us at 513-852-5600 right away.

SOME COMMON EXAMPLES OF CONTRACT DISPUTES INCLUDE:

  • Nondisclosure agreements: These are contracts in which the parties agree to treat shared information as trade secrets and to not disclose it without permission.
  • Sale of goods agreement: This contract stipulates the product or products to be sold to one party at a predetermined time and price. These traditionally also includes provisions that allow for remedies to the buyer should the seller breach the terms of the agreement.
  • Employment agreement: This is an arrangement that specifies the conditions of the relationship between an employee and an employer, including compensation and expectations.
  • Shareholder agreement: This is a contract between the shareholders of a corporation, detailing their rights, privileges, protections, and obligations. These agreements also normally include the corporation’s articles of incorporation and its bylaws.
  • Non-compete agreement: This is an agreement between an employer and an employee where the employee agrees not to enter into competition with the employer after their term of employment ends.

Disagreements between business partners can vary widely. Our commercial litigation attorneys will look out for your best interests, double-check current contracts, obligations and liabilities, and confirm your compliance with standard dissolution requirements. The Cincinnati attorneys at Burg Simpson bring a level of experience and confidence to your negotiations so your company can work through disputes before they make it to a courtroom – if possible. But when negotiations stall and trial is unavoidable, we will take your fight to the courtroom. Call a litigation attorney before you begin any contract discussions at 800-318-9815.

UNFAIR COMPETITION

Legal issues surrounding unfair competition fall under both state and federal law, and cover cases of economic injury to a commercial entity because of deceptive or wrongful business practices by a competitor.  This can be applied to any dishonest and/or fraudulent business activity. A commercial litigation attorney in Burg Simpson’s Cincinnati office can help if your business has been hurt because of a competitor’s unfair business practices.

SOME EXAMPLES OF UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES INCLUDE:

  • Trademark infringement: Trademark infringement is a “violation of trademark terms by another body that encroaches on privileges and rights of the owning body.”(Black’s Law Dictionary).  In short, this is what happens when a competitor attempts to pass off their product as yours.
  • Misappropriation of trade secrets: This is what happens when a competitor illegally secures economically advantageous information possessed by someone else.
  • False advertising: This is defined as the use of “misleading, false, or unproven information to advertise products to consumers or advertising that does not disclose its source.”
  • Unauthorized substitution of one brand of goods for another: This is also called “bait and switch,” and is the deceptive sales technique of promoting a product at a low price to lure customers in before telling them that the advertised item isn’t available and that they should buy a pricier product.
  • Use of confidential information by former employee to draw customers to a competitor.
  • False representation of products or services: This includes making any materially misleading facts about a product.
  • Trade libel: This is the dissemination of false information about the quality or characteristics of a company’s products.
  • Tortious interference: When a company attempts to wrongfully interfere with an existing business or contractual relationship between two other parties.

QUI TAM / WHISTLEBLOWER

From the Latin for “who as well,” a qui tam action is a suit brought by a private individual against another person or a company who is suspected of defrauding the government or of violating a government rule. These suits fall under the False Claims Act, a federal law that allows the individual to file on behalf of the government in exchange for a monetary reward. This action is more commonly known as whistleblowing.

ACCORDING TO THE FALSE CLAIMS ACT, THE FRAUDULENT ACTIONS THAT CAN SPARK A QUI TAM SUIT INCLUDE:

  • Knowingly making a false claim for payment to the federal government.
  • Knowingly submitting false information to the federal government to get a claim paid.
  • Working with others to submit a fraudulent claim to the federal government for payment.
  • Knowingly submitting false information to conceal, avoid, or circumvent a duty to pay money to the federal government.

OUR CINCINNATI ATTORNEYS WILL FIGHT FOR YOU

In addition to federal laws, your state may have its own whistleblower protections in place that require a potential whistleblower to follow specific procedures to qualify for protection. If you have non-public information about a fraud against the government, you need confidential and secure legal help regarding your rights and any potential for compensation. It’s imperative that you speak with an experienced, qualified attorney before you take action and go public.

The act of whistleblowing requires an action-oriented mindset, a great deal of patience, and the knowledge and experience of a business litigation lawyer. These suits can quickly turn complicated, requiring a lot of research, organization, and presentation of facts to prove and support the fraud in question against the government. Call Burg Simpson’s law offices in Cincinnati Ohio, at 800-318-9815 and speak with our attorneys today.

SECURITIES

When those expectations are broken, you and the many others who trusted that company can lose hard earned money. When this happens you need an attorney to help hold these companies responsible for their misrepresentations, non-disclosures, and other security frauds.  Burg Simpson has experience pursuing these types of investment frauds.
