Litigation attorneys are more common in the world of business than you might think. However, this does not mean that everyone knows exactly what they do. While the title “litigator” might carry with it certain stereotypes, understanding what a litigator actually does will give you a better idea of when you might need such an attorney’s services. A good litigator is one of the most important contacts that your business can have, even if you don’t intend on going to court any time soon.
What Do Litigation Lawyers Do?
Generally speaking, commercial litigators are the lawyers who actually represent your business in the courtroom when you deal with commercial legal matters. While the general stereotype of attorneys leads most people to assume that all lawyers are familiar with the court room, the reality of the legal practice is that only a certain portion of those who have passed the bar ever spend significant time in front of a judge, even fewer spend time representing businesses in commercial matters. These are the attorneys who have made it their mission to master the practice of commercial law and argue it professionally.
Litigators, of course, do more for a business than simply represent it in court. While litigators are more than familiar with the ins and outs of representation, their primary job is to zealously represent their client and his or her wishes. The attorney makes it his or her mission to represent the client to the best of his or her ability, carrying out the client’s wishes in a manner that is beneficial for the client but still within the bounds of the law. In many cases, this means representing the client in pre-trial matters ranging from looking over documentation to pre-trial activities.
When Do You Need a Commercial Litigation Lawyer?
Common wisdom would state that you need a litigation attorney any time you think your business will be involved in litigation. If you think there is any circumstance in which your business may need to be represented in front of the court, it’s always best to turn to a professional at Vargas Gonzalez Delombard who are skilled in that area of law.

At the same time, it’s just as important to cultivate a relationship with a litigator before your business finds itself in front of a court. As was stated above, litigators can play a key role in helping your business even outside of the courtroom. Having a good litigator standing by can give you the confidence you need to make better deals and to work with others, all the while knowing that you have a powerful ally standing behind you. Working with a good litigator should be one of your first priorities.
