Written by Plakas Mannos | Apr 10, 2025 12:44:13 PM

Navigating the complexities of corporate transactions requires more than just a basic understanding of business law; it demands a deep comprehension of potential disputes and the strategies to prevent and resolve them effectively. Rather than hiring a business litigation lawyer or law firm who spends all of their time sitting at their computer or in the boardroom, engaging a law firm with real courtroom experience in corporate litigation offers several distinct advantages:  

  1. Global Risk Assessment and Management: Lawyers with litigation backgrounds, and especially trial lawyers, are adept at identifying potential legal pitfalls that may not be immediately apparent. Their experience allows them to foresee challenges that could arise post-transaction, enabling proactive measures to mitigate risks and best position your transaction for long-term success.

  2. Strategic Negotiation and Deal Structuring: Litigation-savvy attorneys bring a unique perspective to negotiations, understanding both the legal and potential contentious aspects of deals. This insight ensures that agreements are not only favorable but also resilient against future disputes. The lawyers with the best perspective to make sure things go right with your transaction are the lawyers who have actually been in the courtroom litigating corporate transactions gone wrong.

  3. Expertise in Due Diligence: A thorough due diligence process is crucial in any corporate transaction. Lawyers with litigation experience excel in scrutinizing and revising documents and identifying red flags that could lead to future conflicts, ensuring that all aspects of the deal are transparent and secure and that all of your questions and concerns are thoroughly addressed.

  4. Effective Dispute Resolution: Should conflicts arise during or after a transaction, having attorneys who are seasoned commercial litigation trial lawyers provides a significant advantage. They possess the skills to navigate disputes efficiently, aiming for resolutions that protect your business interests and best position you for success going forward.
