Experienced Litigation and Dispute Attorneys

Attorneys at the Law Offices of Peter J. Lamont have successfully litigated thousands of matters from simple disputes to complex, multi-party, lawsuits and class actions in State and Federal Courts. We also appear before arbitral and administrative tribunals, and in mediation. We utilize innovative strategies throughout the pre-trial, trial, and appellate process to secure favorable and cost-effective results for our clients.

Our litigation practice includes all types of individual and business-related disputes including breach of contract, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and other business torts; dissolution of companies and partnerships; the enforcement of, or challenge to, restrictive covenants and non-compete agreements; trade secret disputes; shareholder derivative claims, product liability, negligence, contract issues, along with many other disputes that arise among business owners, their employees, and clients/customers. We also routinely litigate insurance defense and coverage claims, real estate, and land use matters, employment matters, construction disputes, and more. 

 

Aggressive Trial Preparation & Procedures

While it is no secret that more than 95% of all lawsuits settle prior to trial, we approach every case aggressively and prepare as if it is going to go to trial. At the Law Offices of Peter J. Lamont, we believe that strong pre-trial preparation leads to more favorable and expeditious resolutions for our clients.  If a settlement is not in the cards, we are always ready to take our cases before a judge and jury at trial.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

Aside from litigation, we understand the benefits and practical business considerations involved in alternative dispute resolution. Our experience and skill allow us to resolve many of our client's disputes through alternate dispute resolution channels, primarily through mediation or arbitration, or simply through skilled negotiation and settlement.

 

Fair, Transparent Billing  

Let's be honest, litigation by its' nature, is expensive and time-consuming. We do our best to alleviate the burden and uncertainty of litigation costs by providing our clients with fair hourly rates and transparent billing procedures.
