Commercial business disputes are an inescapable reality of being engaged in the restaurant industry, whether you an own and operate a restaurant, bar, pub, nightclub or franchised operation. For irrespective of the degree of legal safeguards that are implemented to protect your restaurant business, there are always areas of legal vulnerability. And it is such vulnerabilities that provide the basis for commercial disputes and trial litigation.
Resolving such commercial disputes is rarely a simple or straight forward task. There are many variables and positions that impact on the situation, together with considerable evidence that is subject to a broad array of interpretations. And to make matters worse, emotions typically enter into the arena of commercial litigation, oftentimes preventing rationale decisions and resolutions from being achieved. With all these competing issues it is no wonder that litigation in the restaurant industry can be very time consuming and expensive, such that settling prior to proceeding to a court trial, where there invariably remains considerable uncertain as to the verdict, tends to be the appropriate decision.
