Businesses large and small, and in all industries, are at some risk of litigation. Even when risk management efforts are given adequate attention, a certain degree of risk exposure is unavoidable. Business law varies in significant ways between different jurisdictions, and so businesses that don’t carefully read and follow the laws in their regions of operation open themselves to tremendous liability. Additionally, even when businesses do follow all applicable laws, 21st century business ethics standards demand that companies do more. Public opinions on the social and environmental responsibilities of businesses have changed in a drastic way over the last few decades, and these changes demand that firms adopt aggressive programs to become good stewards for the environments and communities in which they operate. These challenges can be difficult even for the largest and most powerful corporations, and so they’re even more daunting for small business owners and operators.
Our Orlando Business Expert Witnesses have respected credentials and years of experience in all of the areas of liability that typical businesses might encounter. Additionally, many of our experts also work as business consultants in the Orlando area, so we understand the intricacies of common areas of business liabilities, including employment, marketing and advertising, finance and accounting, transportation and logistics, intellectual property, franchise and licensing issues, and general negligence.
