Litigation & Dispute Resolution

Bowditch offers comprehensive litigation and dispute-resolution services for businesses, individuals, insurers, developers, and public entities. Our litigation team is known for its strategic, results-driven approach, focusing on efficient resolutions while remaining fully prepared to advocate aggressively in court when necessary.

Our litigators are experienced trial lawyers and appellate advocates. That experience and expertise make all the difference.

With many decades of experience in state and federal courts and before administrative agencies, we deliver practical, professionally aggressive, client-focused advocacy designed to protect business interests, manage risk, and achieve favorable outcomes across a wide range of disputes, including business litigation, construction disputes, employment litigation, insurance coverage and defense matters, personal injury claims, and real estate, environmental, and land use litigation. Disputes often involve contract disputes, fiduciary duty claims, employment discrimination, and wage-and-hour cases, construction defects and delays, insurance coverage issues, serious personal injury and wrongful death claims, and land use and environmental enforcement actions.

We work to resolve conflicts efficiently and cost-effectively, seeking to avoid litigation where appropriate. As such, a key additional strength of the Litigation & Dispute Resolution practice is our alternative dispute resolution (ADR) capabilities, including mediation and arbitration.

Our litigators work closely with clients to evaluate risk, develop strategy, and determine the most effective path to resolution—whether through negotiation, ADR, or trial.

In addition, several of our attorneys are certified mediators and arbitrators with long track records of facilitating full, final and cost-effective resolution of complicated, burdensome lawsuits.
