Commercial Litigation

We guide businesses and business owners through the full range of issues and disputes that arise during the course of doing business, including landlord-tenant disputes, debtor-creditor actions, products liability matters, partnership disputes, shareholder actions, construction matters, and employment issues. We strive to have a full understanding of not only our clients’ legal goals, but their business and social goals as well, so we can offer solutions and produce results that are consistent with the way they do business. Whether the objective is a fast, inexpensive resolution, or taking cases to trial with the goal of changing the legal landscape, we use the law to help our business clients get back to business.

Trust and Estate Law

KluzEvans is a full-service trust and estate law firm that can assist you every step of the way. We can help you plan for the future by developing an estate plan tailored to accomplish your objectives. And we can assist with the administration of trusts and estates. Or, if you need experienced and aggressive litigators, we will work tirelessly to resolve difficult and sensitive trust and estate issues. We have experience with complex trust disputes, estate litigation, conservatorships, financial elder abuse cases, and challenges to wills, including challenges based on incapacity, undue influence, and fraud.

Personal Injury

We have represented clients on all sides of personal injury matters, including both those who have suffered injuries and those accused of causing them.

If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by someone else, you may be burdened by medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses. At KluzEvans, we have extensive experience helping clients seek compensation for their injuries. We will evaluate your case and give you straight answers about the process of bringing a lawsuit, including negotiating a settlement or trying your case. We will fight for you every step of the way to ensure the person who caused your injuries is held accountable.

If you’ve been accused of causing harm, we can help you mount the best possible defense and work with any insurance companies that might be responsible for helping to cover the loss. We know personal injury cases. And we can help you navigate the process of asserting a defense and protecting yourself from liability.

Insurance and Insurance Defense

We have extensive experience litigating a wide range of complex insurance matters and, as a result, we have developed a sophisticated understanding of the common law, statutes, regulations, and public policy considerations at play when insurance is at the heart of a dispute. We work with insurers, third-party administrators, and policyholders in insurance matters, ranging from first- and third-party property and liability coverage, complex insurance pricing and rate disputes, market conduct examinations, auto claims, commercial general liability matters, asbestos claims, insurance fraud cases, and cases involving allegations of insurer bad faith.

Employment

We help our clients navigate the issues that arise at every stage of the employment relationship. From hiring to termination, we advise our clients on how to avoid liability for discrimination and harassment, how to manage leave laws and wage and hour issues, how to minimize liability through workplace policies, and how to effect terminations in a way that doesn’t leave the company exposed. In addition to advice, we have experience resolving disputes—whether through litigation or otherwise—when discrimination problems arise, when employees violate the terms of their non-compete agreements, and when bullying in the workplace results in claims against the company. When employment problems present themselves, we’re equipped to step in and handle it.
