Corporate and Business Litigation

Northern Georgia Corporate/Business Litigation Lawyers

At Ballinger & Associates, in Canton, Georgia, we represent businesses throughout northern Georgia, including all of Cherokee County. We are licensed to practice in all state courts in Georgia, as well as the federal district courts for the northern and middle districts in Georgia, the Federal Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, and the United States Supreme Court. Contact us or a private discussion of your legal concerns.

First and foremost, we are trial attorneys. We work with businesses and corporations at all stages of a commercial dispute, from the initial filing through discovery and trial, if necessary. Though we are skilled negotiators and can often settle a case before trial, we prepare every case as if it will go to the courtroom. Specific types of claims that we litigate include:

• Breach of contract claims
  • Employment contracts
  • Vendor agreements
  • Licensing agreements
  • Real estate contracts, including commercial leases
• Breach of fiduciary duty claims
• Shareholder and partnership disputes

In addition to business and corporate litigation, we also provide business formation and transaction counsel to our commercial clients. We can advise you regarding the tax and liability advantages of the different business structures, from sole proprietorships and partnerships to limited liability companies, C-corps and S corps. We will also draft the documents necessary to establish your business entity in good standing under Georgia business laws, including articles of incorporation, by-laws and corporate resolutions.

We negotiate, review and draft all types of business and commercial contracts, such as employment agreements, sales and distribution agreements, licensing contracts, non-compete, confidentiality agreements and commercial real estate contracts.

We know from experience that our clients make the best decisions when they make them for themselves. We believe that it is our role to inform and empower you, so that you understand your options and your likelihood of success.

At the office of Ballinger & Associates, we accept all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. We are located across the street from the courthouse in historic downtown Canton, Georgia. Contact us to arrange a confidential consultation.
