Our Services

If you run a business long enough, chances are you will eventually need to collect an unpaid invoice or enforce your rights under a contract with another party. We have extensive experience helping individuals, businesses, and financial institutions with creditor’s rights and collection cases, including matters as simple as enforcing a promissory note and as complicated as dismantling asset-protection schemes involving multiple defendants.
Briarwood Legal separates itself from other firms in high-level collection engagements, often for other attorneys looking to recover substantial judgment awards obtained for their own clients. Our involvement does not end with a debtor’s bankruptcy filing either. We are well-versed in insolvency laws and represent creditors in cases under all chapters of the Bankruptcy Code and in adversary proceedings. We will take all steps necessary to ensure that our clients recover the greatest amount possible, including filing proofs of claim, reviewing and challenging reorganization plans, and objecting to discharge and dischargeability.
If you need to protect your rights and recover outstanding debts, we are here to help. We will provide you with personalized legal guidance, strategic representation, and relentless advocacy to achieve the best outcome in your debt recovery efforts.

Every business faces problems with customers, suppliers, or employees at some point. Those issues are distractions at best and existential threats at worst. Fortunately, the impact can be minimized, and choosing the right attorney can make all the difference.
When a client retains Briarwood Legal to prosecute or defend a lawsuit, we prioritize two things: first, understanding the ins and outs of your business and, second, maintaining close attorney-client collaboration throughout the case. Why? Because doing so allows you to make informed decisions and aligns our plan with your objectives to resolve the issue as painlessly as possible. We also don't limit ourselves to traditional ways of solving legal problems; we challenge conventional wisdom and routinely employ unorthodox strategies to help our clients obtain the best possible outcome.
Briarwood Legal regularly assists businesses and their owners with:
1. Contract issues, whether you are facing a disagreement over interpretation, trying to enforce contractual obligations, or defending against allegations of breach;
2. Business tort claims, such as fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, interference with business relationships, unfair competition, and trade secret disputes;
3. Shareholder direct and derivative actions, and partnership disputes. Like romantic relationships, partnerships and other professional arrangements may not last forever. When a client no longer sees eye to eye with a business partner, we help with the separation and work to minimize the impact of the conflict on the business;
4. Intellectual property disputes, including trade secret misappropriation, trademark and service mark infringement, and related matters; and
5. Restrictive covenant issues, including alleged violations of noncompetition, nonsolicitation, nondisclosure, and confidentiality agreements.
Our commitment to your business extends beyond the courtroom and sets us apart as a trusted legal partner for businesses of all sizes. We value long-term relationships and are dedicated to supporting your ongoing success. Trust us with your current problem, and we will do everything we can to see that very few follow it.
