Our civil litigation practice encompasses a wide range of matters crucial to the credit and collection industry, including consumer protection defense, Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) litigation, and state collection practice laws. We routinely handle commercial collections disputes, contract litigation, and regulatory compliance defense. Our deep industry knowledge allows us to anticipate challenges and develop effective strategies tailored to each client’s specific needs.
Alternative Dispute Resolution
We recognize that litigation and eventual trial can use up an extraordinary amount of time, energy and resources. For that reason, it is often wise for parties to explore alternative dispute resolution options such as mediation or arbitration. Our firm has significant experience participating in both mediation and arbitration across various jurisdictions throughout the country. These alternative approaches can often lead to more efficient resolutions while helping maintain important business relationships.
Through mediation and arbitration, we help clients evaluate the most cost-effective path to resolution while ensuring their interests are fully protected. Our experience in these forums allows us to guide clients through the process effectively, whether the matter involves routine collections issues or complex regulatory challenges. We work diligently to achieve favorable outcomes that align with our clients’ business objectives while minimizing the time and expense associated with traditional litigation.
