Business is complicated, and it involves legal relationships between many different parties. Owners can contract with additional owners, vendors, clients and customers, and other businesses, among others.

A business litigation attorney helps to resolve such conflicts in the most effective and efficient manner possible, whether it is through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution, or taking the matter to court.
As the highest legal duty in the U.S. legal system, a fiduciary duty applies when someone is acting on behalf of another person or entity, which is common in business or trusts and estates. A fiduciary must act with the interests of the other party over their own and must act with proper care, loyalty, and good faith. When someone breaches this duty, legal consequences can arise.
A living trust (also called an inter vivos trust) is a legal document that designates the trust as the owner of your property and names a trustee to manage and distribute the property according to your wishes. While you are alive, you will likely serve as the trustee with a successor trustee who takes over when you are incapacitated or pass away.
