COVID-19 Resource Center: Litigation
Bricker’s commercial litigators advise businesses, insurance companies, health care providers and employers on disputes that have emerged during the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak.
Delayed production, stay at home orders, employee sickness and insolvent counter-parties are prompting a wave of new claims. In addition to responding to daily regulatory changes, evolving supply chain challenges and unexpected business interruptions, our litigators advise clients in planning ahead to manage long-term disputes.
