Virginia Commercial Litigation

Many times aggrieved parties' remedies will be cumulative and encompass multiple Virginia actions for relief. In the commercial sphere this is often true and clients will seek payment from business entities and corresponding personal guarantors. An unpaid client may have a combination of contractual claims, implied contract claims, equitable or "quantum meruit" claims, mechanic's lien claims, and/or bond claims against one or more parties. Typically, these can be combined in one action and as more information comes to light several avenues for relief can be utilized to effect payment.

Often a client may have a mechanic's lien claim, Virginia contract claim and "quantum meruit" claim for varying amounts which collectively can offer almost full relief. The subsequent tabs are case studies of actual cases which illustrate effective collection of amounts utilizing a combination of different remedies leading to substantial, or in some cases, total relief.
