Why Us - Slater Law Group, A Professional Corporation

Effective litigation and successful deal-making require the judgment, knowledge, and insight to know what arguments to pursue, what results are possible, and how best to obtain them. But none of that is possible without understanding our clients’ needs first.

That’s what we do really well. We listen, probe, provide clarity, and then apply our judgment, expertise and determination to achieve the best possible result for each client. We have the vision and skill to resolve all types of disputes in the most advantageous and cost-effective ways.

No two cases, like no two individuals or businesses, are the same. Some are best resolved through a mediated settlement. Some require litigation, either in a courtroom or before an arbitrator. We know the proper path. When necessary, we create it.

Industry Focused

Our attorneys have substantial experience advising clients and resolving disputes in a broad array of commercial industries and businesses, particularly:

Technology and Software

From guiding start-up companies, building and protecting IP portfolios, negotiating license deals, and litigating to protect our clients’ trade secrets, we work closely with our technology and software company clients through all stages of their growth and advancements.

Banks, Lenders, Brokers, Private Equity Firms, and other Financial Institutions

We have deep experience representing both lenders and borrowers in loan workouts and restructurings, liquidations, foreclosures, bankruptcies, and asset recovery.

Distribution and Supply Chain Companies

The movement of any product from manufacturer/producer to customer/consumer involves distribution. We have negotiated countless such agreements, and litigated all aspects of supply-chain relationships, such as product losses and returns, indemnities, brand transfers, and franchisor/franchisee issues.

Real Estate and Construction

In a volatile industry like real estate and construction, many factors can cause disputes to turn into lawsuits. Grievances between developers and contractors, landlords and tenants, and brokers and agents are common. We understand the law and the strategies that work to obtain the best possible results for our clients.

Corporate/Partnership Disputes

Business relationships, like many of the personal relationships they are built on, are fragile. We understand the complexities of corporate and partnership formation, governance, fiduciary duties, and dissolution. We have litigated and successfully resolved all types of such issues, especially those involving mismanagement, transfers of corporate control and buy-outs.
