Commercial litigation involves nearly every type of dispute that can arise in the business context, including breach of contract, partnership and limited liability company disputes, corporate governance issues, breach of fiduciary duty, trademark and other intellectual property disputes, trade secret and confidentiality issues, employment disputes, and many other types of business-related disputes.

Sparkman + Foote serves as ethics counsel to lawyers and law firms, offering guidance to keep them on a sound ethical footing in their practice or when a lawyer leaves.  And if you find yourself faced with an ethical dilemma, or worse a grievance, know that we can help.  We also offer expert witness services in matters of legal ethics, professional standards, and corporate governance.

Protection of a client’s brand, product, and secrets is essential to business success.  We can help businesses achieve that protection through trademark or copyright registration, confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements, intellectual property ownership agreements, licensing, protection of trade secrets, and enforcing your rights against infringement.
