LITIGATION
At Poff & Weber, we understand that you cannot always control your business and personal relationships. While we place great emphasis on counseling our clients to anticipate and prevent disputes from arising, we understand that litigation may be necessary at times to achieve a result, or to protect our clients’ interests.
