Litigation
The litigation practice at Lexpand complements our corporate and real estate transactional practices. While we do from time to time get involved with civil disputes, the majority of our work in the litigation department consists of corporate, commercial and real property disputes. Our familiarity and direct involvement in corporate and real estate transactions places us in a unique position to represent clients in real estate and corporate disputes as upon reviewing the transaction documents, we can quickly spot the issues, point out the deficiencies in the transaction and advise you on how to handle your dispute.
We always advise our clients that litigation is a lengthy and expensive process which should be avoided to the extent possible. But we recognize that in certain circumstances, you have no option but to act quickly and take legal action to protect your rights.
