Litigation Lawyers in Boulder City

In Boulder City, Nevada, commercial litigation is any legal dispute that involves some type of business transaction. Commercial litigation can be between two businesses, a business and an individual, or two individuals. It usually comes up when everyone involved least expects it, and it can arise from just about any situation.

In Boulder City, Nevada, litigation is complicated and expensive. While it can come up between sophisticated companies, it can just as easilyy involve people who would never guess that they'd one day be involved in a commercial litigation dispute in Boulder City, Nevada. It can arise from the most informal business transactions, such as a homeowner selling a piece of furniture to his neighbor.

Common Sources of Commercial Litigation in Boulder City, Nevada

Commercial Leases: Most people who have businesses in Boulder City, Nevada need a physical location from which to run their operation. Often, the business owner has to rent some office or commercial space from somebody who owns a building or plot of land. The terms of these rentals are put in writing in commercial leases. Like any contract, when one party violates one of the provisions of the lease, such as by failing to pay rent, commercial litigation might be used, as a last resort, to resolve the dispute.

Sales of Real Estate: When buying a house or a plot of land in Boulder City, Nevada, there are several things that can go wrong, which can lead to commercial litigation. Whether there is a defect in the seller's title, a physical defect on the property that the seller did not disclose, or the buyer fails to make timely payment, a dispute, which might lead to commercial litigation, is possible.

Sale of Goods: The sale or purchase of personal property is another common source of commercial litigation in Boulder City, Nevada. For example, a restaurant owner might order tomatoes from a supplier, and fail to pay for them. The owner might argue that the tomatoes were rotten and unusable when they arrived, and he therefore does not have to pay. Obviously, if the two parties can't resolve this dispute somehow, they will have 2 options: simply let it go, and likely never do business with one another again, or go to court, and resolve it through civil litigation.

Business Loans: Starting a business in Boulder City, Nevada, or anywhere else, is expensive. Usually, when somebody starts a business, they have to take out a loan from a bank. However, if the lender engages in some type of improper activity (such as trying to collect payment in a manner not allowed in the loan agreement), or the borrower doesn't make the payments on time, commercial litigation is likely to result.

Breach of Contract: When an individual or business in Boulder City, Nevada, agrees to exchange something of value for something else of value (such as a product in exchange for money), they have entered into a binding agreement called a "contract." This means that each party can use the law to compel the other party to perform their obligations under the terms of the contract. If someone fails to perform under the agreement, commercial litigation is one option to resolve the resulting dispute.
