GENERAL LITIGATION MATTERS

Milwaukee, Wisconsin Equine Litigation Attorneys

Litigation has its own rules of discovery, as well as legal and filing processes and procedures that must be adhered to. When entering into litigation over a breach of contract or economic harm caused by the actions of a government authority or company, understanding how to prepare and proceed is essential. At the law firm of Hale & Wagner, our attorneys seek damages for clients who have suffered economic harm as a result of a breach of contract or general negligence. Our experience and knowledge has also found its niche in litigation involving municipalities, sports law, entertainment law and equine law.

If you have suffered economic harm due to a breach of contract or the negligent actions of others, we have the resources and knowledge to help you recover damages. To schedule a consultation and learn how we can help you, contact litigation attorneys at the law office of Hale & Wagner today. 

Municipal Law and Litigation

Municipalities have the legal authority to create codes, ordinances and zoning requirements that impact businesses and property owners. However, when municipalities fail to follow due process in gauging or determining the interests of business owners affected by a project or legislative initiative, they can often be held liable for resulting economic harm.

For example, municipalities that engage in unfair bidding practices for city contracts or services may be liable for economic harm suffered by contractors denied fair and equal access to the bidding process. The same can happen when the city attempts to raze, teardown or fine owners under arbitrary, vague laws. At Hale & Wagner, our attorneys represent clients who have suffered economic harm due to the actions or negligence of municipalities.

Sports Law and Entertainment Law Litigation

Sports and entertainment contracts are important for protecting the economic value of an athlete's skills, as well as his or her public persona. Likewise, entertainers have an economic stake in protecting their talent, voice, name and public persona. When a breach of contract governing royalties, salary, benefits or intellectual property rights are involved, our attorneys pursue damages for athletes and entertainers. While we are willing to enter into negotiations, we prepare each case for trial in order to better leverage our clients' interests. Hale & Wagner also recognizes the sensitive nature of these disputes. So while our sports and entertainment clients have had serious pressing and immediate needs, many come to Hale & Wagner to utilize our lawyering skills in resolving cases expeditiously and confidentially. Please contact us today for further information about how we can help you.

Intellectual Property Law

In an increasingly global economy, protecting the innovations and ideas of individuals and companies has become increasingly important. At Hale & Wagner, our attorneys recognize that intellectual property litigation requires both legal proficiency and an understanding of complex technical issues. Whether defending against copyright, patent or trademark infringement, our attorneys have the skill to manage complex IP litigation matters. We counsel clients on the availability of patent protection, and we prosecute and defend our clients' rights in misappropriation or infringement disputes. Whether you are a publisher or author, sports entity, technology company or media company, contact us for assistance with your intellectual property litigation needs.

Equine Law - Sleds, Rides and Entertainment Venues Using Horses

The sale, use or stabling of a horse carries certain kinds of responsibility and liability. Injuries or disputes involving insurance policies and reimbursement for losses may require litigation when owners or insurers are unwilling to comply with contractual or policy terms and conditions. Since horses are unpredictable, businesses and horse owners may not be liable for injuries that occur when someone falls from a sled, horse, or pony.

As equine litigation attorneys, we defend horse owners, horse farms and businesses facing litigation involving allegations of negligence in these and other types of accidents. These cases can be as devastating as they are unfortunate. To schedule a consultation and learn about our experience and how we can help you, contact litigation attorneys as the law office of Hale & Wagner today.
