In the timeline below, you can see how long it typically takes to litigate a business dispute in Court. Most cases get resolved when they reach the “Mediation” stage after the parties have spent tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on attorneys’ fees on motions, depositions, and discovery.
Our service is a Direct-to-Mediation service that allows you to bypass those years of litigation expenses, attorneys’ fees, and stress and resolve your case now.
The Divorce for Business™ resolution program was created by a business litigation attorney looking to offer direct-to-resolution services to business partners who wish to end their business relationship. Divorce for Business™ clients understand and appreciate the costs and uncertainty of litigation, and they want to take control of the process.
Controlling the business divorce process is imperative in today’s judicial climate. The litigation process is disproportionately uncertain for business owners. That is because the vast majority of judges sitting in Georgia have primarily criminal law backgrounds. Before becoming judges, they handled cases under the Criminal Procedure Code of Georgia, which is a completely different set of rules and procedures from the Georgia Civil Practice Act, which governs business divorces. What that means is that most likely, your case will end up before a judge who not only does not know the law on business divorces, but also does not have a working knowledge of the rules that apply to the case. As a result, and as virtually any business litigation attorney will tell you, that inexperience makes it almost impossible for attorneys to tell you what your chances of success are, how much litigation will cost you, and how quickly you can get to a resolution. Lawyers cannot answer those questions with any degree of certainty because even in “slam dunk” cases, they simply do not know. Giving their clients a 50/50 chance of success between 1 and 4 years out is typically a lawyer’s best and most prudent advice.
1 to 4 years to resolution will not work. These odds and this timeframe are unacceptable for professionals who understand the risks and the litigation process, and who are ready to weigh that risk against controlling a known outcome.
