As former New York State Court of Appeals Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman observed, Given the longstanding preeminence of New York as a center of commerce, as might be expected, [New York] state throughout its history has also flourished as a center of commercial litigation.
The two are inextricably linked, for whatever the human endeavor, disputes are inevitable.
Commercial Litigation typically encompasses any type of business-related dispute that could wind up in court.
There are certain mainstream disputes that frequently occur, no matter the variation on the type of business which may bring or defend such a litigation.
There are as many different types of fraud as there are different types of crimes or misconduct: the number is limited only by the imagination of the wrongdoer.
Because of the significant implications that arise when accusing someone of fraud, the statutes governing fraud claims mandate that the allegations be made with particularity because mere allegations of fraud are insufficient.
Our Long Island business fraud lawyers can help you understand the complexities of fraud claims.
As a result of the heightened pleading standard, the Plaintiff must provide factual specifics that correspond with some of the elements of the fraud cause of action, including specifying the statement or omission that the plaintiff contends is fraudulent; confirm who said; where it was said, when it was said, coupled with an explanation why the statements or omissions were false when made.
In any business litigation, sometimes a party requires immediate Court action prior to the completion of a lawsuit.
In essence, a party may seek interim relief so that any ultimate victory in court is not rendered moot by some conduct which could render the award ineffective.
The law provides specifically delineated provisional relief mechanisms which a Court may effectuate to preserve the so-called "status quo" while the merits of the dispute are finally determined.
Make no mistake, the burden of proof to attain each relief mechanism is difficult and each one has its own inherent challenges and advantages.
While it is true that robust competition is acceptable and universally beneficial, some business relationships are afforded protection from third-party interference, notwithstanding whether a formal contractual relationship exists between a business and its customer.
There are two types of potential claims that govern interference with business relationships.
Assuming a contract exists between a business and its customer, the law protects the contractual relationship such that a third-party who intentionally interferes with the contractual relationship may be liable for damages if the contract between a business and its customer is breached.
