Business Litigation FAQ

What type of cases are considered to be ‘business litigation?’

Business litigation refers to lawsuits filed by or against businesses relating to business transactions or disputes. At Hunt & Taylor Law Group, LLC, our Gainesville business law attorneys have decades of experience in business litigation, as well as resolving business disputes outside of court.

Are damages recoverable in a business litigation case?

Yes, damages are recoverable in business lawsuits to recover losses sustained by the injured party. In addition, some cases involve claims for equitable relief, such as injunction, to prevent the at fault party from taking actions which might injure the other party.

Do I need a Georgia business law attorney to file a lawsuit involving business litigation?

An individual has the right to represent himself or herself in a case involving business litigation, although hiring an attorney is recommended. If a business entity, such as a corporation or limited liability company, is a party to the case, the corporation or limited liability company must be represented by an attorney.

Can I recover attorney fees and expenses?

Yes, depending on the facts of the case. In business cases involving contracts, there may be a clause in the contract allowing the prevailing party to recover attorneys fees and expenses of litigation. In addition, there may be grounds for the recovery of attorneys fees and expenses under laws that apply to the facts of the case.

What documents are involved in business litigation cases?

Documents are very important in business cases. Many times, the case involves disputes arising from contracts entered into between the parties and so the underlying contract is important in defining the rights and obligations of the parties. Other important documents include letters, emails, text messages and other communications between the parties.

How long does it take to litigate a business dispute?

After a business lawsuit is filed, there is an established procedure for the case to progress to trial. There is a discovery period, during which the parties have the opportunity to send written requests to the other party and take depositions of witnesses who may testify at trial. The parties also have the right to file pretrial motions on various legal issues raised in the case.
The average length of time for most cases to get to trial is approximately two years, but the case may take longer to get to trial if the case involves a high number of witnesses and legal issues.
