Commercial Litigation

McDonnell & Associates’ have represented multi-national retailers and other large businesses for over thirty years. Our clients regularly face disputes involving commercial leases, service contracts, vendor agreements, construction specifications, indemnity agreements, insurance agreements, restrictive covenants, as well as other types of routine contracts. The firm also regularly deals with governmental agencies and municipal authorities about threatened civil enforcement matters.

Because the firm regularly tries cases before juries, it has become particularly adept at reducing complex arguments into simple understandable narratives. Virtually every business dispute originates from a broken promise or a misunderstanding about the intent of the parties. With effective storytelling, the firm enlists the factfinder’s engagement in resolving the dispute, whether the decisionmakers are judges, juries, or arbitrators. The firm has proficiency with the predominant e-discovery platforms; and more importantly, efficiently works to prevent the scope of the e-discovery from disrupting business operations or exceeding the value of the case
