Some of the specific conflicts Everett has expertise in litigation includes:
Fraud
Some people are unscrupulous about their greed. Unfortunately, these individuals have no qualms defrauding business owners like yourself. Fraud, which can range from simple misrepresentation to gross improprieties, can cripple a business, drain shareholder wealth, and cause immeasurable damage. As a commercial litigation lawyer, Everett Day aggressively pursues defendants that engage in fraudulent action against your business.
Conversely, you may be a business owner that does everything right, but miscommunication or just bad faith on the part of another party can lead to you being unfairly accused of fraud. You have the right to defend yourself and your business against accusations that could potentially destroy everything you have worked for. Everett has experience in successfully defending clients against accusations of fraud.
Breach of contract
Contracts clearly outline the obligation, rights, and remedies that each party agrees to adhere to when entering into a business agreement with each other. If one party fails to uphold the terms they agreed to in the contract, this is a breach of contract.
Breach of contracts can be detrimental to the health of a business. This may pertain to an employment agreement, product contract, services contract, or a transaction. In a breach of contract action, the law intends to restore you back to the same economic condition as if the contract had been performed.
Depending on the circumstances of the contract breach, you may be entitled to damages in the form of liquidated damages, specified performance, compensatory damages, or other remedial damages.
As a commercial litigation attorney, Everett’s job is to help you enforce the terms of the contract and protect your rights as outlined in the contract. He will work to represent your interests whether you are accusing another party of breaching the contract, or if you are being subject to a breach of contract allegation.
Breach of fiduciary duty
Fiduciary duty is the legal and ethical obligation for one party to act in the best interest of another party. Fiduciary duty claims are notoriously complex. Fiduciary misconduct can destabilize and destroy an entire business.
This misconduct, legally known as a breach of fiduciary duty, is an incident stemming from a fiduciary failing to uphold their obligation and subsequently causing damages. It is a serious allegation that can result in millions of dollars being awarded to the damaged party.
Everett Day represents both plaintiffs and defendants in breach of fiduciary duty cases. Everett will work to understand the circumstances of the accusation, conduct an investigation, and develop a course of action that will ideally lead to the best possible outcome.
Shareholder conflicts
A shareholder dispute arises when the shareholders’ rights are violated. Shareholders are the backbone of many businesses; as investors in the business, they have certain rights afforded to them, such as voting rights and receiving dividends.
As a commercial litigation attorney, Everett is ready to step in and defend the rights of shareholders, as well as defend businesses that are unfairly being harassed by shareholders. While Everett’s primary goal is to resolve conflicts through negotiation or mediation, he is prepared to represent your interests in the court of law if the conflict escalates to the point where court intervention is necessary.
Trade secret exposure
The exposure of trade secrets can seriously damage the well-being of your business. Texas law (Uniform Trade Secrets Act) protects businesses against the misappropriation of trade secrets. Everett Day stands ready to use litigation as a means of enforcing safeguards such as non-disclosure agreements (NDA) or other confidentiality agreements to keep trade secrets from being shared.
Everett works to build a strong case with solid legal arguments and hard-hitting supporting evidence to protect your interests and increase the likelihood of your case being successful.
Whistleblowers
Everett Day has the highest amount of respect for whistleblowers that expose fraud or misconduct. He understands how much risk whistleblowers assume when disclosing such information. That’s why as a commercial litigation attorney, Everett has a deep understanding of whistleblower laws and can provide strategic and aggressive representation to protect the rights of whistleblowers.
