FAQ: How long does it take to resolve a commercial litigation matter?
As in many cases, the answer to this question depends heavily upon the specific case and the client’s goals.  We may be able to resolve some issues successfully via negotiation or alternative dispute resolution processes, and these cases resolve more quickly than those that require formal trial for successful resolution.  If trial becomes necessary, the court calendar and availability of witnesses will come into play to impact the time necessary for resolution—and the time period involved is only magnified for commercial litigation matters on appeal.  In all cases, our experienced lawyers work with you so that we understand your goals—for example, if expedient resolution is a primary objective, we can employ a strategy designed to resolve the case more quickly.
