In addition to routine business disputes, unfair, deceptive
and unethical dealings can arise in virtually every business
setting. When this unscrupulous conduct crosses into the realm
of illegality, the law regards it as business tort.
For example, fraud and misrepresentation arise in a variety
of scenarios, including construction projects, real estate matters,
health care reimbursement, insurance disputes, partnership agreements,
government contracts and the purchase and sale of businesses.
Such fraud need not be intentional to be actionable. North Carolina
law recognizes that negligent misrepresentations are as actionable
as intentional deceit when they give rise to quantifiable damages.
An action under the North Carolina unfair and deceptive trade
practices statute will allow the prevailing party to recover
triple damages, in addition to attorneys’ fees. Our firm
is willing to offer contingency fee billing in such cases. This
arrangement allows aggrieved business owners to seek the justice
and compensation they deserve without racking up huge legal
bills. |

How We Work
Most business litigation firms continue to charge clients
by the hour. Eager to separate themselves, our attorneys
have developed
alternative billing arrangements that
reward their efficiency rather than the number of
hours
they spend on a legal task.
We also offer flat-fee and contingent fee billing for
business cases. In addition, we offer monthly and annual
retainer arrangements.
