Fraud, Misrepresentation and Nondisclosure in Commercial Transactions
Grumer & Macaluso, P.A., represents business clients of all kinds in South civil fraud litigation. The parties we represent may be plaintiffs or defendants, and include corporations, partnerships, LLCs, individual officers or directors, personal guarantors, business purchasers, lenders, banking consortiums, investment counselors, mortgage brokers and others. For additional information about the scope and scale of our fraud litigation practice, contact our law firm in Fort Lauderdale.
Fraud claims can come up as freestanding allegations in a dispute between two parties or emerge as a counterclaim against the plaintiff in a contract enforcement or debt collection action. Sometimes fraud claims arise as a third-party claim joined months after the initial pleadings between the original parties. Regardless of the way it comes up in the litigation, a fraud claim can potentially overwhelm the other issues in the case through the complexity of the evidence and its implications for the business reputation of the party charged.
