Experienced Trial Attorneys for Complex Legal Matters

Civil Litigation

Our firm represents individuals and businesses in a wide range of civil disputes. As experienced trial attorneys, both Kevin Buchan and David Cardamone are skilled negotiators and formidable litigators. We are prepared to protect your interests in matters involving business disputes, contract issues, and other civil conflicts throughout Monmouth County and across New Jersey.

Business Litigation Services

Business disputes can threaten the viability of your company and require swift, strategic legal action. Our attorneys represent businesses and business owners in partnership disputes, shareholder disagreements, breach of fiduciary duty claims, and other commercial conflicts. We understand that business litigation can be disruptive and costly, so we work efficiently to resolve disputes through negotiation when possible, while remaining fully prepared to litigate aggressively when necessary to protect your business interests.

Contract Disputes

Breach of contract cases are among the most common civil litigation matters. Whether you're dealing with a vendor who failed to deliver goods or services, a contractor who abandoned a construction project, or a business partner who violated your agreement, our attorneys can help enforce your contractual rights. We handle contract disputes involving sales agreements, service contracts, employment contracts, real estate contracts, and other commercial agreements. Our approach focuses on understanding the specific terms of your contract, identifying breaches, and pursuing appropriate remedies including damages, specific performance, or contract rescission.

Personal Injury Claims

If you've been injured due to another party's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Our civil litigation practice includes representing injury victims in automobile accidents, slip and fall cases, premises liability claims, and other personal injury matters. We investigate the circumstances of your injury, gather evidence, consult with experts when necessary, and fight to obtain full and fair compensation for your losses.

Property Disputes

Property disputes can arise between neighbors, landlords and tenants, buyers and sellers, or other parties with competing interests in real estate. Our firm handles boundary disputes, easement conflicts, adverse possession claims, landlord-tenant litigation, and construction defect cases. We work to resolve property disputes efficiently while protecting your real estate rights and investment.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

Not all civil disputes need to be resolved through lengthy court battles. We regularly represent clients in mediation and arbitration proceedings, which can provide faster and more cost-effective resolution than traditional litigation. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who work to achieve favorable settlements while avoiding the time and expense of trial. However, when settlement isn't possible or in your best interest, we're experienced trial lawyers ready to present your case to a judge or jury.

If you're involved in a civil dispute and need experienced litigation counsel, contact Buchan & Cardamone for a consultation. We'll evaluate your case, explain your legal options, and develop a strategic approach to protect your rights and interests.
