Guin, Stokes & Evans, LLC

Guin, Stokes & Evans, LLC We do one thing: business and financial litigation. We don’t draft wills or leases. We don’t lobby Congress, give tax advice, or negotiate labor contracts.

Business, Financial & Complex Litigation - Commercial Litigation; Shareholder Disputes; Securities; Antitrust; Financial; Accounting; Broker-Dealer; Non-Compete Agreements No divorces or criminal defense. But if your case involves any sort of business or financial dispute, it's right up our alley. Much of our national reputation has been built on complex financial litigation, especially securities

litigation, antitrust, class actions, and stock fraud arbitrations. But we focus just as much on general commercial litigation, business disputes, financial fraud, accounting issues, business valuations, shareholder fights, covenants not to compete, and trademark litigation. And because we do one thing, we don't have to spin our wheels - and waste our clients' fees - learning new areas of law. So we save you money. We represent both plaintiffs and defendants in state and federal courts across the country and before arbitration panels. No representation is made that the quality of legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other attorneys.
