filed a lawsuit against your business. Now what? Many business owners
find themselves at a loss as to how to deal with a lawsuit because
they always assume they won’t fall prey to this problem. But when
dealing with different kinds of people – business associates,
partners and clients alike, there’s always a chance that something
will go awry, which will lead to disputes and eventually to lawsuits.
The
first thing you should do is retain the services of litigation
lawyers in Vancouver such as Lakes, Whyte LLP. Review the case with

all information is correct, you and your lawyer can then proceed with
the litigation process and preservation of all necessary documents
and proofs that pertain to the case. Proofs and documents can also be
in the form of photos and videos. Those need to be preserved as well.
If
you have a business insurance, which you should if you want to be
protected from these cases, you should inform them right away of the
lawsuit. Review the coverage of your business insurance as not all

experience.
Discuss
with your lawyer about how best to respond to the lawsuit or
complaint. Talk about the possibility of denying or admitting the
allegations as well as coming up with a defense. Think about the
possibility of off-court settlements as well.

business will need the help of a lawyer at one time or another so
