Business & Commercial Litigation
Partnership fights, lockouts, broken contracts, ruined reputations. Order imposed on them in the right sequence — the evidence and the money secured first, then the leverage the facts actually give — so the business on the other side of it is still standing, and still growing.
What the firm handles
- Partnership, LLC-member and shareholder disputes — deadlock, lockout, freeze-out, dissolution
- Breach of contract and business torts, including fraud and breach of fiduciary duty
- Defamation, trade libel and business disparagement — defending reputations, personal and commercial, and the claims brought against them
- Trade secrets, non-compete and restrictive-covenant disputes
- Employment claims on either side — unpaid commissions, departing-employee disputes, executive exits
- Civil theft, conversion and fraudulent-chargeback claims
- Franchise and dealership disputes
- Lender liability, loan and mortgage disputes, and guaranty enforcement
- Professional malpractice claims
- Emergency relief: injunctions, receiverships, asset freezes
- Pre-suit strategy and negotiated exits where a lawsuit is the wrong tool
How the firm approaches it
Joshua R. Kon ran businesses before practicing law. So the first questions are commercial, not procedural: what is this dispute worth, what does winning look like, and what should it cost to get there. The litigation plan is built backward from that answer — and because the same lawyer handles trial, any appeal, and collection of the judgment, no leverage is lost in a hand-off.
While the facts are still fresh.
In a partnership fight, the first week tends to decide what the last one is worth.
