Defending A Lawsuit

We regularly receive inquiries from newly-sued individuals and businesses that have received a summons and complaint.  If you have recently received a summons and complaint, we encourage you to contact us for a free consultation . It's important to develop a strategy for addressing the lawsuit as soon as possible, as defendants have a short period of time to respond to the complaint.  Moreover, a failure to respond on time to a complaint can result in a default judgment being entered against the non-answering defendant.  In a short period of time, we can advise you on your options for responding to the complaint, which -- depending on the circumstances -- could include challenging the complaint by demurrer or motion to strike, answering the complaint to assert affirmative defenses, and filing your cross-claims against the plaintiff. 

Each litigation lawyer in our law firm understands the process of effectively and efficiently responding to lawsuits and resolving them through settlement or trial.
