The experience you need before — and after — you hit the wall In today’s competitive business climate, your company’s ability to thrive depends on the freshness of your ideas, the quality of your goods or services, and your willingness to work hard. But it also depends on how you combat deceptive and unscrupulous treatment from competitors, colleagues and clients. That’s where Schwartz & Kanyock, LLC comes in. Our Chicago attorneys have more than 50 years of combined experience in business and commercial litigation, much of it spent helping our clients manage worst case scenarios. Though we regularly assist with the nuts and bolts of commercial transactions and disputes, we are nationally recognized authorities on areas of the law that protect good-faith businesspeople from underhanded tactics, such as: Fraudulent transfers — Bad faith liquidation of assets for the sole purpose of frustrating your claim for payment Breach of fiduciary duty — Violations by officers that put the company and its owners at risk Business oppression — Abuse of business governance procedures to deprive minority owners of their rights Confessions of judgment — Hidden contractual language that makes you personally liable for your company’s debts
