Litigation Lawyers in Moline

Commercial Litigation in Moline, Illinois is civil litigation that arises out of a business transaction, or some other conflict between two businesses, or between a business and a customer. It can appear out of nowhere, and arise out of almost any business matter.

Commercial litigation in Moline, Illinois is often very complicated and expensive, and while it often involves two businesses in a legal dispute, it can also come up between ordinary individuals, who never thought they'd get involved in Moline, Illinois commercial litigation.

Common Sources of Commercial Litigation in Moline, Illinois

Commercial Leases: Most businesses in Moline, Illinois operate from a single physical location, despite the rise of the Internet and e-commerce. These locations are often in rented space, which is typically more cost-effective than purchasing real estate just for the purpose of operating a business. These rental arrangements are laid out in documents called "commercial leases." Like every other contract, these leases are occasionally broken. If the parties cannot resolve the ensuing dispute amongst themselves, they might have to resort to commercial litigation.

Sales of Real Estate: Whether you're buying a house, an office building, or a vacant lot in Moline, Illinois, there are plenty of things that can go awry in the process. For instance, the seller might fail to disclose an easement on the property, or a physical defect, which you only discover after the sale is final. Or, if you're the seller, the buyer might fail to pay on time. Such mishaps are almost sure to cause a dispute, and if the parties cannot resolve it amongst themselves, commercial litigation might be the only choice.

Sale of Goods: The sale of personal property can also lead to commercial litigation in Moline, Illinois. This most usually comes up when a business is buying large volumes of products from a supplier, and the supplier fails to deliver them on time, or delivers the wrong goods, or the wrong quantity of goods. Normally, if the parties cannot resolve the problem between themselves, commercial litigation will result.

Business Loans: In Moline, Illinois, it's typical for new businesses to require a loan from a bank to get started. This can, sometimes, lead to disputes between the borrower and lender. For instance, the borrower might habitually fail to make payments on time. This will lead to the lender trying to collect, and possibly resorting to commercial litigation.

Breach of Contract: When a Moline, Illinois business agrees to provide something of value (a product or service) in exchange for something else of value (typically money), a contract is formed. A contract, put simply, is any agreement that the law will enforce. Contracts can be very simple, or incredibly intricate. In either case, if one party fails to perform under the terms of the contract, commercial litigation is one way to resolve the ensuing conflict.
