Litigation
The litigation attorneys of Anderson Law Firm are ready to fight for you. We represent individuals and small to mid-size business clients in a wide array of civil and business litigation matters. Our lawyers have decades of combined experience – including years spent at some of the large law firms in Pittsburgh – zealously and aggressively pursuing lawsuits and defending clients. By way of example, the types of cases that we handle include a landlord-tenant dispute before a local district justice, a defamation lawsuit in response to a social media post, neighbors squabbling over their property line, and a business owner grappling with a breach-of-contract lawsuit that could cost the company hundreds of thousands of dollars.
We recognize that the legal system is complex and that personal and commercial legal disputes can be stressful and intimidating. We make things easier for our clients with our personalized, hands-on approach. Our bright and experienced attorneys jump right in. We respond quickly to phone calls and emails, even at night and on weekends, and promptly meet with you.
Our goal is to resolve legal problems in a practical, cost-effective manner. We critically analyze the legal issues at hand and confer with our clients to develop a customized game plan. We take an incremental approach. We go over legal options and costs available to you each step of the way. We make you feel at ease. Yes, it is possible to be liked by our clients and feared by our adversaries.
Many cases settle before going to trial. We efficiently manage and resolve conflicts involving individuals and business owners. We get results with our demand letters and settlement negotiations with opposing counsel. We take part in mediations and in arbitration hearings, including proceedings involving the American Arbitration Association.
When we must do battle, we represent plaintiffs and defendants in state and federal courts in Western Pennsylvania. We appear regularly before district justices in local communities, arbitration panels made up of attorneys, and judges and juries in courthouses in Allegheny, Westmoreland, Butler, Beaver and Washington counties and beyond.
The civil and business law cases that we handle include the following:
- contract disputes;
- fraud claims and other business torts;
- estate litigation;
- trust litigation;
- will contests;
- collection cases;
- defamation and invasion-of-privacy claims and other First Amendment matters;
- matters involving homeowners’ associations (HOAs), planned communities and condominium associations;
- real estate disputes;
- premises liability;
- employment disputes, including non-compete agreements and other restrictive covenants;
