We received a jury verdict of $30,000,000+
Kirby D. Hopkins and his team of legal professionals at Hopkins Centrich have done an amazing job serving as local counsel for my San Antonio-based business when a business venture in Montgomery County went south. With Kirby’s assistance, we received a jury verdict of $30,000,000+. We are still working together on related matters. I would recommend Hopkins Centrich to any business professional looking for a tenacious law firm to represent them and their company, especially if the matter involves business divorce, handling a business bully, breach of fiduciary duties, or misappropriation.

How long does business litigation take?
The duration of business litigation can vary widely depending on several factors, such as the complexity of the case, the amount of evidence, and the court's schedule. Simple cases may take a few months, while more complex cases can take several years to resolve.
When should I consider business litigation?
You might consider business litigation when there is a legal dispute impacting your business that cannot be resolved through negotiation or other alternative dispute resolution methods. Common scenarios include breach of contract, partnership disputes, or intellectual property issues.
Is there an alternative to litigation?
Yes, alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation or arbitration can be considered. These methods tend to be quicker and less expensive than traditional litigation. They also offer the advantage of confidentiality and can be less adversarial.
