Civil Litigation

Businesses, large and small, want the same things – civil wrongs to be righted, fairness, and a legal system that works. The faster litigation achieves these ends and the less money spent to do so, the more satisfied a client is with legal services rendered.

At Paula S. Teske & Associates, our firm has a number of qualities that effectively serve us in achieving this type of litigation. For one, our reputation precedes us in the courtroom due to the fact we are known for having taken hundreds of trials to verdict. Attorneys that are aggressive litigators and prevail in cases become forces to be reckoned with. However, in addition to our courtroom savvy, we demonstrate excellence in thorough research and detailed documentation that is part and parcel to the litigation process. This second skill combined with our tour de force at trial often shortens the litigation runway and results in negotiated settlements and resolutions before a lawsuit has run its full course. Capability, common sense and a results oriented approach often allows us to present cases in the most favorable light and maximize the likelihood of desirable outcomes which are short of protracted and costly litigation.

Our civil litigation covers a general and broad scope of legal areas. Breach of contract, unfair competition, fraud, defamation, probate litigation, construction disputes, mechanic’s liens, anti-trust claims, bankruptcy litigation and complex business litigation are some of the areas in which we have litigated, to name a few. We represent cases in Federal and State Courts and also litigate appeals.

We welcome the opportunity to assist you in your civil litigation matters. Please send us an email or phone our office at 310-391-6800. We will be glad to arrange a consultation.
