Business Litigation and Commercial Litigation
Our Attorneys Can Help Resolve Business Disputes
If a business wins in the courtroom, but does so at great cost to its bottom line, reputation, and relationships, a true victory has not been achieved. An experienced business litigation attorney can help your business make favorable decisions that lead to success from both a legal and a business perspective.
At Heath, Old & Verser, P.L.C., we are fully aware that parties to business disputes and litigation have a number of different goals. In addition to obtaining a positive result, clients want efficient and effective resolutions, so they can spend their time operating their business, not sitting in a courtroom. We strive for a result that meets these business needs, yet avoids damage to our client's image as well as its bottom line.
We aim to provide practical and effective guidance at each stage of a case. Contact our firm today to get started on your case.

Risk Management is an Integral Part in How Our Attorneys Help You
When discussing the possibility of litigation, we encourage clients to think of business litigation as a separate joint venture. Throughout a case, our team at Heath, Old & Verser, P.L.C. will encourage you to consider the time and expense you will put into this venture, and whether it will likely produce the results you desire. We also counsel business clients on the use of different methods of alternative dispute resolution, such as negotiation, mediation or settlement conference programs, which often can yield favorable resolutions without the cost, time investment, and publicity of litigation. However, if trial is unavoidable, we have the experience to get the job done.
Our attorneys have helped many businesses achieve success in the courtroom. One of the ways we measure our reputation in this regard is the number of requests we receive from other lawyers. In fact, one of the firm's partners, Len Heath, was selected for inclusion as a Super Lawyer® in business litigation from 2005 to 2009, 2011 to 2012, and 2016 to 2022. Prior to entering law school, Len graduated from the College of William and Mary Business School, which provided him unique training and experience to assist clients in resolving, and even avoiding, business disputes.
