Commercial Litigation

Strategic counsel for Massachusetts businesses in disputes that matter.
Commercial litigation is not just about filing claims—it is about aligning legal action with business priorities, preserving leverage, and moving quickly when delay causes harm. Whether enforcing a contract, defending against unfair competition, navigating an ownership dispute, or seeking emergency relief, we combine litigation experience with practical judgment to protect your business and its future.
We represent plaintiffs and defendants across Massachusetts, including owners, investors, contractors, partnerships, startups, and closely held companies. Our goal is direct: define the objective, identify the leverage, and act with discipline to achieve results.

THE CLP APPROACH
Cole Law Partners is built around personalized counsel, relentless strategy, and efficient execution. In commercial cases we measure success by outcomes that reflect business value, not the volume of motions filed. We prepare each matter as if it will go to trial, but structure every step to maintain leverage and create opportunities for resolution.

We secure evidence, manage the record, and pursue the forum that maximizes leverage, whether in state court, federal court, or arbitration.
Protect business interests
We advise on governance, contracts, and risk before litigation, so clients are positioned to act decisively if disputes escalate.
Move fast when necessary
We pursue temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions, and other emergency relief to protect assets, relationships, and competitive advantage.
