Contract Disputes

Though most businesses do not enter into a contract with the expectation that the terms of the agreement will be violated — or that the other party will accuse them of violating their contractual duties — the reality is that even properly drafted, well-communicated agreements may become the centerpiece of litigation.

One party may end up in a more vulnerable position, depending on how they prepared for the possibility of a contract dispute. Securing a favorable resolution in an efficient and timely manner is critical to minimizing losses and transitioning into a position of strength.

Attorney Jae H. Lee is committed to providing comprehensive representation to businesses in New York City who find themselves engaged in a contract dispute, whether as a plaintiff or defendant.  Mr. Lee has worked extensively on behalf of clients for both transactional and litigation matters, giving him unique insight into the nature of such disputes, including how they develop and how best to resolve them.  He is therefore well-equipped to assist clients at every stage of a contract dispute.

Contextualizing Success in a Contract Dispute Scenario

Effective litigation — in the contract dispute context and otherwise — is not merely about proving that the defendant is liable and therefore “winning” a case. Successfully resolving a contract dispute requires that you secure the maximum compensation that you are entitled to under the law.

For example, suppose that you have entered into a contract that the defendant later breached, causing you to suffer losses equivalent to $500,000. If the case proceeds to trial and you secure a winning verdict with damages amounting to $250,000, then you might reasonably consider that result a disappointment, depending on the particular circumstances surrounding the breach at-issue.

Here at the Law Office of Jae H. Lee, PLLC, we take an aggressive approach to litigation that gives us substantial leverage during early negotiations with opposing counsel. Our willingness to take a case all the way through to trial (and secure a favorable verdict) ensures that opposing counsel must properly consider our demands.
