Commercial Litigation & Asset Recovery

§1

Comfortable in the Courtroom

Some disputes can't be negotiated away. When your business, your assets, or your reputation are on the line and the other side won't budge, you need an attorney who is genuinely comfortable in the courtroom, not one who treats litigation as a last resort they'd rather avoid.

We handle sophisticated commercial matters across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties, from emergency ex parte motions to complex multi-party trials. Our approach is aggressive but disciplined: we pursue cases that make financial sense and we give clients honest assessments of the costs, timeline, and likely outcome at every stage.

§2

Receivership

When business assets are at risk of dissipation, whether through mismanagement, fraud, or a dissolving partnership, we pursue the appointment of a receiver under Florida's equitable-remedy framework (governed primarily by case law and Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.620) to preserve and marshal assets for the benefit of creditors and stakeholders. We also represent appointed receivers in managing and liquidating business operations under court supervision.

§3

Replevin & Asset Recovery

When someone is wrongfully holding your property, vehicles, equipment, inventory, or other tangible assets, Florida's replevin statute (Chapter 78, Fla. Stat.) provides a mechanism for recovery, including prejudgment writs under § 78.068 that allow seizure before trial. We handle the full replevin process: verified complaints, prejudgment bonds, writs of possession, and the underlying conversion or breach of contract claims.

§4

Fraud & Conversion Claims

Whether it's a business partner diverting company funds, a contractor who took payment and disappeared, or a third party who converted your property, we prosecute fraud and conversion claims aggressively. We pursue actual damages, punitive damages where warranted, and equitable remedies including constructive trusts and accounting.

§5

Emergency & Injunctive Relief

Some situations can't wait for a trial date. Under Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.610 we pursue temporary restraining orders, temporary injunctions, and emergency relief to prevent irreparable harm, whether it's a departing employee stealing client lists, a partner raiding the business account, or a counterparty destroying evidence. Meeting Florida's four-part injunction test (likelihood of success, irreparable harm, inadequate legal remedy, public interest) requires a verified, evidence-heavy application; we move fast and we know what courts need to see.
