B&M's well-rounded trial team regularly interprets the legal ramifications of a contract's terms when a dispute arises and also advises our individual and business clients about their obligations under a contract before a dispute occurs. Our clients frequently seek our advice about whether to sign a contract and about what the ramifications of signing will be. B&M is committed to explaining the contents of all contracts to our clients clearly, concisely, and in plain English.

B&M's thorough and detail-oriented trial attorneys are strongly positioned to address the intricacies of lengthy contracts that are frequently riddled with legal terms and often incomprehensible terminology. Having represented both plaintiffs and defendants in numerous contract actions, we are able to critically analyze and understand both sides of a contract dispute, allowing us to more easily undercut an opponent's arguments.

In addition, B&M attorneys are skilled draftspersons. Poorly written and untailored "form" contracts can be a recipe for expensive and time-consuming lawsuits. B&M encourages clients to seek our advice concerning any agreement before a dispute arises so that litigation can be avoided whenever possible.

When a contract dispute turns into a lawsuit, B&M's trial team pursues the case vigorously from start to finish, including any necessary appeals or administrative hearings. While B&M has successfully resolved numerous disputes in advance of trial through negotiation, mediation and arbitration, B&M prepares for every contract dispute as if it is expected to go to trial.

• Employment Contracts;
• Commercial Leases;
• Purchase & Sale Agreements;
