Get the contract right before there's a problem
Most business disputes start with a contract that didn't say what both sides thought it said. For foreign founders, U.S. contracts can contain unfamiliar clauses on liability, indemnification, governing law and dispute resolution. We review and draft agreements in plain English, explain what each key clause means for you, and negotiate changes when the risk isn't acceptable.
When a dispute starts
If a client doesn't pay, a partner stops cooperating or an employee raises a claim, early, well-documented action usually leads to better outcomes. We assess the facts and the documents, explain your options and their costs, and often start with a demand letter or negotiation. Many disputes settle at this stage.
Cross-border matters
Disputes between U.S. and Polish parties raise questions about which law applies, where a claim can be brought and how a judgment can be enforced. With an attorney licensed in both California and Poland, you get one coordinated strategy instead of two firms working in parallel. See also business law in Poland.
