We can agree that business litigation lawyers should not be expensive. The larger the law firm protecting your business, the higher their fees. I recognize that early business resolution is usually better than a prolonged war. Nevertheless, a business litigation attorney must not be afraid to go to trial. Many business litigation attorneys do not have jury trial experience. I have nearly thirty jury, bench, and arbitration trials. As a San Diego business dispute attorney, I aim for personal service and attention towards the best early resolution.
Hello, I’m Brad Nakase.
I started my career as a business litigation lawyer in San Diego. I’ve successfully defended business clients litigating against major corporations like Microsoft and MGA Entertainment. I am admitted as a trial attorney in all California State Court, Federal Court District of Colorado, Federal Court Central District and Southern District of California.

The four critical things a business must do when sued:
Most lawyers do not have trial experience and pressure their clients to settle. One of the most important question you should ask the potential business lawyer:
When your business is at stake, going to trial is like going to the Superbowl and no time for a rookie lawyer with no trial experience. Selecting an experience trial lawyer will be one of the most critical decisions you will make for your business.

I’ve started my legal career in 2005 representing businesses of all sizes. My first few business litigation cases involved defending business clients in lawsuits brought by big companies like Microsoft and MGA Entertainment. Later in my career, I was a litigation lawyer at an international law firm, Bremer Whyte et al., where I protected the interests of major insurance companies and their policyholders in a multi-million-dollar lawsuits.
Civil litigation is a legal dispute between two or more parties who seek either money damages (compensation) or equitable relief (asking the court to force a party to do something or refrain from doing something). A civil lawsuit can be filed either in federal or state court. Different conflicts comprise civil litigation, and a litigator usually specializes in a couple of areas. Some common types of civil litigation are:
A litigator is a lawyer that specializes in civil litigation and represents the parties in trials, hearings, mediations, and arbitration before state and local courts. He/she has civil litigation skills, including but not limited to, client’s development skills, negotiation skills, advocacy skills (oral and written), the capability to synthesize complicated materials (legal and factual), and others.
Mediation is a process (more like a meeting) in which parties, their attorneys, and a mediator (mutually selected) try to reach an agreement by both parties. It helps prevent the case from going to trial. It is essential to keep in mind that the mediator can make no legally binding decision, and he/she is only there to help resolve the dispute. Mediation is a good option, and Nakase Law Firm also recommends it because more than half the cases get solved through meditation. If required, Brad Nakase also serves as a mediator, and he has a reputation as an impartial lawyer.
No, you can file a civil case in 30 days in the California State Court. This period starts from the date someone serves you notice of the lawsuit. You can submit a responsive pleading in Federal Court in 21 days. The court can grant the other party judgment against you if you are late or do not want to respond to civil summon. Please contact Brad Nakase at 619-550-1321 to get counseling on what you need to do next and how one should file a responsive pleading in a civil case.
The cost of a civil lawsuit depends on various factors, such as the attorney’s hourly rate, the time it is taking for the case, the number of mediation sessions, etc. It is essential to understand that civil lawsuits can not only be time-consuming but expensive as well. That’s why Brad Nakase always counsels his clients to avoid litigation and only recommends moving forward with it if it becomes the only viable solution. His priority is to save his client’s time and money. You can call him at 619-550-1321 for a free consultation.
It is strongly recommended not to move forward with lawyers that demand a fixed upfront fee to represent you through the trial. Although some lawyer may focus on your case, most lawyers don’t pursue the case with much commitment. It is because they don’t have any other incentive.

Your lawyer may choose one of the following ways (or may choose a hybrid of two):
A fixed flat fee is not quite standard in a civil lawsuit because lawyers know that there can be several unknown variables and costs. In most civil litigation cases, lawyers prefer an hourly fee. Lawyers mostly prefer to take a percentage of recovery in insurance-related cases.
It depends on what county the case was filed. In Orange County, it may take twelve months to get the jury. In San Diego, it may take up to two years for a case to get to a jury. The reason San Diego is slow is because of budget cuts.
You can settle your civil lawsuit litigation case at any stage of the litigation (provided that both sides agree to it). Once you’ve resolved the case, the lawyers will draft a settlement agreement, and both parties need to sign on the drafts. It will forever end the lawsuit.
