"By partnering together, rather than treating each other as adversaries, we can cultivate long-term, win-win working relationships."

Payton's law firm is currently handling a large volume of lender liability and construction litigation. Additionally, the firm has deep experience with general commercial litigation, breach of fiduciary duty and business torts, commercial real estate litigation, bankruptcy adversary proceedings, professional liability, probate and estate litigation, condominium litigation and appellate law.
