FAQs
What options do Sunrise business owners have for resolving commercial lease disputes?
Commercial lease disputes can often be resolved through direct negotiation or mediation before litigation becomes necessary. Review your lease for dispute resolution clauses, as many commercial leases require arbitration or mediation. If those approaches fail, filing a civil action in Broward County court is available.
How do I dissolve a business partnership in Sunrise?
Partnership dissolution depends on your partnership agreement terms and Florida law. If partners agree, a voluntary dissolution follows the agreement's procedures. If partners disagree, judicial dissolution may be necessary. Either way, proper accounting and asset distribution are essential to avoid further disputes.
What is the process for filing a civil lawsuit in Broward County?
A civil lawsuit begins with filing a complaint in Broward County Circuit Court, serving the defendant, and allowing time for a response. Discovery, motions, and potentially mediation follow before trial. Most civil cases resolve before trial through negotiation or settlement.
Can I file a claim against an insurance company for denying my claim?
Florida law allows policyholders to pursue bad faith claims against insurers who unreasonably deny or delay valid claims. These cases require careful documentation and often benefit from legal representation, as insurers have significant legal resources.
