Litigation Lawyers in Beaumont

Commercial Litigation in Beaumont, Texas is a legal dispute that originated from some type of business transaction, which ends up in court. Commercial litigation can arise between basically any two entities, and in almost any situation.

Common Sources of Commercial Litigation in Beaumont, Texas

Commercial Leases: Most individuals who have businesses in Beaumont, Texas 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: Buying office space, a home, or an empty plot of land in Beaumont, Texas is not a simple process, and something can go wrong at any step along the way. For example, there might be a title defect, or some type of physical flaw on the property, and the seller fails to disclose it to the buyer, this will almost definitely lead to the buyer demanding payment, in the form of a full or partial refund, from the seller. If no agreement can be reached, commercial litigation is the possible result.

Sale of Goods: In Beaumont, Texas, the sale and purchase of personal property is also a common source of commercial litigation. Just like any business transaction, things can go wrong in the sale of goods. For instance, the seller might deliver the wrong goods to the buyer, or deliver them late. Likewise, the buyer might fail to pay for the goods at the agreed time. Most of the time, business people are able to resolve these disputes without resorting to commercial litigation. In rare cases, however, they have to take their dispute to court, and settle it that way.

Business Loans: When a business is started up in Beaumont, Texas, one of the initial steps is usually to take out a loan from a bank. However, this is a perplexing process, and there are many things that can go wrong. If the borrower fails to make the required payments, or the lender attempts to defraud the buyer, civil litigation is a strong possibility.

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