YOUR COMPREHENSIVE INJURY LAW RESOURCE

Business Trial Group

Unlike traditional corporate law firms, Morgan & Morgan’s Business Trial Group handles commercial litigation exclusively on a contingency fee basis. That means that our attorneys are singularly focused on winning.

The Business Trial Group has won more than 85% of our jury trials and arbitrations. Our skill and reputation have allowed us to recover tens of millions of dollars in judgments and settlements for our clients.

Just a few of the Business Trial Group’s recent results below demonstrate our attorneys’ experience in winning complex business disputes. They also provide real examples of how a contingency-fee structure allows clients to have their cases heard on the merits and achieve the results they deserve.

The facts and circumstances of each case are different and must be individually evaluated.

In 2009, Morgan and Morgan established the Business Trial Group with a simple, yet novel objective – provide clients with first-rate commercial litigation attorneys on a contingency basis. 

By combining the resources of a preeminent trial law firm with the expertise of career business lawyers, we have built a reputation for getting results by aggressively fighting for our clients.

We have recovered tens of millions of dollars on behalf of our clients. Our attorneys have established a track record of success, and many have honed their craft at prominent national and international law firms. But what makes them different from other business litigators is that our attorneys are real trial lawyers, skilled at taking complex cases to jury trial and winning.

We take on complex cases and well-funded adversaries. Whether it comes to staffing, technical experts, or sophisticated document management systems, we give our clients an edge.

We practice business litigation solely on a contingency-fee basis, so our compensation is directly tied to our client’s success. Our clients pay no attorneys’ fees unless we prevail. 


Earn Compensation for the Business Cases You Refer

The Business Trial Group provides our referral partners with a unique financial opportunity. Lawyers that refer business cases to us receive a share of the contingency fee. Whether your client does not want to pay hourly, a case is more expensive than anticipated, you do not handle commercial litigation or you do not handle trial work, referring your client to the Business Trial Group will generate revenue at no cost to your firm.

When you refer your business clients, we share our contingency-fee recovery with you. The fee you receive will be a percentage of any settlement or judgment from your client’s case.  These referral fees are shared in strict accordance with each state’s Rules of Professional Conduct.


Type of Business Cases for Referral

The Business Trial Group has the expertise, experience and resources to handle a variety of  business cases. Our attorneys are experienced with, and have successfully litigated, a wide range of commercial cases related to professional liability, contract disputes, intellectual property, real estate, construction, probate, securities and many other issues.

We do not, however, handle any hourly or defense litigation and we have no transactional practice. That means if you refer a client to us, the relationship will be limited to the case that you referred.  We will honor and respect the relationship between you and your client.

At Morgan & Morgan, Mr. Webster provides representation to clients involved in business disputes on a contingency fee (success fee) model, which allows his clients to obtain the best and most efficient results possible, regardless of their financial position. Using the success fee model, he has recovered tens of millions of dollars for his clients through jury verdicts and settlements. In particular, Mr. Webster has first-chaired numerous trials and obtained a number of significant jury verdicts for his business clients.
