Our lawyers represent both plaintiffs and defendants in civil litigation, but in the more complex commercial cases, the distinction between them can get very blurry. As counterclaims and cross-claims develop as the case proceeds, the original dispute can sometimes be overshadowed by a significant counterclaim raised by the original defendant.
At Kapke & Willerth, our experience with the development and presentation of civil claims in a wide variety of contexts can help you find a path toward a satisfactory outcome.
