Litigation & Alternative Dispute Resolution

Lloyd Gosselink’s litigation attorneys are prepared to assist our clients from both the public and private sectors in avoiding and resolving disputes as expeditiously and effectively as possible. Combining familiarity with current ADR techniques (mediation, arbitration, med-arb and other ADR mechanisms) and a broad range of litigation experience in both state and federal courts, we strive to avoid controversies, where possible, and to resolve disputes, where necessary, by assisting our clients in pre-dispute risk analysis and avoidance, creating and implementing programmatic alternatives to resolving disputes at the courthouse, and in representing our clients in trial and appellate matters in a wide variety of areas throughout the state, including:

• Complex commercial, transactional and contract disputes
• Real estate and land development controversies
• Business torts litigation
• Employment litigation 
• Construction and construction-related disputes
• Fiduciary, partnership and corporate liability claims
• Comprehensive ADR services, as advocate and as independent, third-party neutral

With a broad background in litigation and our flexible approach to resolving disputes, Lloyd Gosselink trial attorneys are uniquely situated to work with the attorneys in our other practice groups in an efficient and effective team approach to resolving the more complex controversies our environmental, water and utility clients are increasingly likely to face. By combining our talents, we are able to bring to bear the technical legal knowledge of our other practice areas in the resolution of complex and specialized litigation matters.

Finally, with our ADR expertise, we can provide neutral mediation, arbitration and other ADR services to those seeking to resolve their disputes in a more efficient and confidential arena than the local courthouse. In appropriate cases, Lloyd Gosselink’s unique blend of ADR expertise and considerable talents in the environmental, water and utility arenas allow us to serve as effective neutrals by partnering experienced ADR providers with our more specialized attorneys and using a team approach to resolve disputes through ADR mechanisms that can be carefully crafted to the specific needs of parties seeking to resolve oftentimes highly technical, complex and publicly sensitive disagreements in a more discrete, cost-effective manner.
