Missouri Law Firm Litigates on Behalf of Your Business

If you engage in commerce, sooner or later you are almost certain to encounter a dispute with a client or contractor that you'll need outside help to resolve. At Cockriel & Christofferson, LLC, we have been assisting businesses for 14 years through alternative dispute resolution and civil court trials in both state and federal courts. We have the knowledge and experience to help your business in cases related to:

-Unfair practices and trade regulation violations
-Breach of contract
-Breach of warranty
-Business torts
-Construction law
-Collections
-Employment disputes
-Insurance
-Products liability
-Real estate
-Partnership and shareholder disputes

Recovery from breach of contract
When a party to a contract fails to perform, the other business suffers. This damage often goes beyond the immediate inconvenience of getting less than promised by the contract. The breach can also cost you future profits if you are unable to serve your clients as a result. The skilled attorneys at Cockriel & Christofferson, LLC can help you achieve the best legal remedy for a breach of contract, such as:
-Compensatory damages - reimbursement for immediate monetary loss
-Consequential and incidental damages - compensation for additional foreseeable losses caused by the breach
-Attorney fees and costs - amounts available only if the contract expressly states they are recoverable
-Liquidated damages - amounts specified in the contract that are payable for particular breaches, such as late or substandard performance
-Specific performance - court order requiring the breaching party to fulfill the terms of the contract
-Punitive damages - penalty for a party's objectionable behavior, meant to punish the breaching party and discourage other parties from acting in a similar manner
-Rescission - cancellation of the contract, with both sides excused from further performance and payments made under the contract returned
-Reformation - change in the terms of the contract when the court believes there was an honest misunderstanding about what was to be performed

Affordable alternatives to a civil suit
The cost of traditional litigation can easily exceed the amount of the contract. Fortunately there are various means of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), including mediation and arbitration, which are less costly and quicker than civil lawsuits, but can deliver the same remedies. Our experienced negotiators have successfully represented clients in arbitration and mediation hearings and have settled lawsuits prior to trial, saving our clients expenses and getting their businesses back on track.
