Disputes involving real estate can have a significant financial impact on you or your business. They may also jeopardize your property ownership status or put your reputation at risk.

The language in a contract may not always be clear. Ask either party in a contract dispute, and you may find that a term or phrase can take on a completely different meaning or relevance. That’s why, if you become involved in a contract dispute, you may need experienced legal counsel to help you sort it all out. This is true whether you have an adversarial or friendly relationship with the other party.

The capable contract attorneys at Tully Rinckey PLLC seek to negotiate discreet settlements in contract disputes as a way to avoid the time and cost of a trial. If a settlement can’t be attained, though, our lawyers are ready to fight for you in the courtroom. We have the knowledge and experience to manage your case through every step of the legal process. We strive always to protect your interests or those of your business.

Federal and state courts typically place time limits on when businesses and individuals can file a lawsuit against another party. These are called “statutes of limitation,” and every court firmly adheres to them. If you face the possibility of a lawsuit, you need to be aware of these statutes. A capable litigator can help you understand where your case stands in relationship to statutes of limitation.

Tully Rinckey PLLC’s knowledgeable litigators stay up to date on statutes of limitation and can advise you on how they may affect your case. Since some statutes of limitation activate when a violation or issue was first discovered, while others begin when the violation or issue first took place, the assistance of a litigator can be invaluable to the success of your case. To ensure you don’t miss a deadline, it’s best to seek legal advice as soon as possible.

A contract is a binding agreement that pledges the performance of some product or service. When a company or individual fails to live up to that pledged performance, it’s called a “breach of contract.” If you or your company have realized damages from a breach of contract, you may want to hire legal counsel to assist you in recovering those damages. If you or your company is being sued for breaching a contract, you will likely need an attorney to represent you and safeguard your interests.

The litigators at Tully Rinckey PLLC understand contract law. Our experienced lawyers bring extensive legal resources to bear on your breach of contract case, giving you the peace of mind that comes with strong, reliable representation.

If you are the defendant, we argue your case vigorously while protecting you from fraudulent or excessive claims.

Bankruptcy litigation involves debtors, creditors, and sometimes trustees who are parties in Chapter 7, Chapter 11, or Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceedings. The goal of debtors is to get rid of debt or to devise a plan for debt repayment. Creditors, of course, just want to get back all or some of the money they are owed. While the bankruptcy process can be pretty straightforward, there are often unforeseen complications that can be difficult to work out. That’s when the services of an experienced bankruptcy attorney can be of major benefit.

Tully Rinckey PLLC’s experienced litigators represent you in bankruptcy proceedings, whether you are a debtor, creditor, or another interested party.

Tully Rinckey litigators make every effort to preserve your ownership in your property, protect the property’s value, and keep your construction projects moving forward.

Some of the most volatile disputes can occur between landlords and tenants. If you are experiencing such a dispute, you may find it worthwhile to hire experienced legal counsel to help you resolve it. Landlords can recover damages caused by careless or irresponsible tenants, while tenants can obtain compensation from negligent or unlawful landlords.

Tully Rinckey PLLC’s skilled team of attorneys can negotiate settlements between landlords and tenants, saving money and time for all parties involved. If a settlement is impossible, we represent you aggressively in court. Our knowledgeable lawyers and proven legal strategies protect your real estate interests, your reputation, and your financial investment throughout the legal process.

Our attorneys represent affected parties in many different kinds of landlord/tenant disputes, including those involving:

  • Discrimination

  • Rent and lease agreements
  • Tenant violations

Tully Rinckey lawyers stand ready to fight for you, whether you are making a complaint or defending against one.

Breach of warranty lawsuits can result when a person or business is damaged in some way by a product or service. Damages can include monetary loss, property damage, or personal injury. There are typically two kinds of breach of warranty suits:

  • Warranty of merchantability breach – a product doesn’t work for its intended purposes, whether the warranty is express or implied
  • Warranty of fitness breach – a product performs differently from its advertised or expected capability

If you have incurred damages from a breach of warranty, you should consider hiring a capable attorney to represent you.

Tully Rinckey PLLC can help you to get your money back, or enable you to be compensated in another way, for breach of warranty damages. To avoid the expense of a trial, our lawyers first seek to negotiate a settlement. If a settlement isn’t possible, we go to bat for you in court, representing you aggressively throughout the legal process – from trial preparation to the final judgment.

A product that doesn’t work properly or a service that doesn’t perform as expected may induce a lawsuit, especially if the customer has experienced damages. If your company has liability in a product or service claim, you may require legal counsel to represent you. This is especially true if the claim is excessive or fraudulent.

The products and services liability lawyers at Tully Rinckey PLLC begin working well before your case goes to court. Our legal team applies proven research and analytical skills to the details of your case in order to choose the best course of action. Whether the claim against you involves damages caused by a design defect, a manufacturing issue, or inadequate warnings – a “failure to warn” assertion – we understand that the outcome of your case may rely on the planning and preparation we do.

Our litigators look at negotiating a settlement as a way to avoid a trial and the negative publicity that might accompany it. A settlement can bring a swift end to the matter, leaving your company in a better financial position. If the claim is unwarranted or deceitful, we file motions to have the case dismissed.

When a settlement can’t be achieved, however, our lawyers represent you aggressively, using all the resources available to them. We are courtroom-tested and ready to defend your company’s interests. If the initial judgment isn’t what you bargained for, our lawyers advise you on your chances of winning an appeal. We fight for you in appellate courts, seeking a more favorable judgment.

Tully Rinckey litigators have represented companies in many types of complicated lawsuits, such as:

  • A commercial grass mower manufacturer – we defended the company against a worker who incurred a serious head injury after accidentally overturning a mower
