Commercial & Consumer

Our Pittsburgh Law Firm Represents Individuals and Businesses in Commercial and Consumer Protection Cases in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio

We represent plaintiffs, both individuals and companies, in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio, who have been significantly harmed by the illegal conduct of companies.  We litigate, in state and federal courts, primarily in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio, claims for breach of contract, antitrust violations, business torts (such as tortious interference with actual and prospective contracts), insurance coverage and bad faith (also known as "breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing" implied in insurance policies), and fraudulent and unfair trade practices (including under state unfair and deceptive trade practices and consumer protection laws).

Judgment Collection

We are also known as being relentless and tenacious in judgment collection litigation. 

Contingent Fee (No Recovery, No Fee), Blended, and Hourly Fee Structures

While we do still handle certain matters on an hourly basis, potential clients may be particularly interested in G&O's willingness to forego the traditional dollars times hours fee structure -- the billable hour -- and instead handle significant (meaning several hundred thousand dollars up to several million dollars) cases on a contingent fee.  Contingent fees perfectly align the interests of the client and the law firm.  With a contingent fee, we share the risks of litigation with our clients, because our firm does not earn a fee unless and until there is a settlement or judgment in our client's favor.

We will also consider blended hourly/contingent fee arrangements and reduced hourly fees in exchange for defined success bonuses.

Clients Should Reward Results, Not Just Efforts

We believe individuals and corporate clients, from small and mid-sized businesses to multinationals, should see value from their outlays for legal services, and reward results, not just efforts.

Our Collaborative Approach

For clients with an existing counsel relationship, we are accustomed to collaborating with your current in-house or outside legal team to achieve the results you seek.
