Criminal Law

Restraining Order
Successfully obtained temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions in federal and state courts on behalf of tier-1 automotive suppliers whose operations were threatened by the actions of their suppliers.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Brooks Wilkins Sharkey & Turco has successfully represented clients in the most difficult and challenging contract disputes, often with tens or hundreds of millions of dollars on the line. Our success in contract litigation spans virtually every one of our clients’ industries and includes common law and Uniform Commercial Code contract disputes. Whether it is a failed corporate transaction, merger or partnership dispute, long-term service contract, life of the part supply contract, or an agreement to manufacture or install industrial assets, contract litigation is the backbone of our litigation practice. Our lawyers have been called as expert witnesses in other forums regarding Michigan contract law. We have more than 150 years of collective experience trying contract disputes, and do so in virtually every state in the nation and in a number of national and international arbitration forums.
Business Transactions
Multinational corporations, local businesses and prominent individuals regularly turn to Brooks Wilkins Sharkey & Turco for business and commercial litigation services in matters ranging from failed business transactions to “bet-the-company” disputes involving hundreds of millions of dollars in potential damages.
Limited Liability Companies
Closely held corporations and limited liability companies often find themselves in litigation turmoil, either as result of claims asserted by minority interests, or when irreconcilable differences arise between co-owners. We have a wealth of experience in handling all sides of these types of intra-entity disputes, including minority oppression claims, claims for breach of fiduciary duty and claims for liquidation/dissolution of the entity.
Trade Secrets
Unfair Competition
Our litigators regularly prosecute and defend business tort claims. Our breadth of experience includes litigating claims involving fraud and misrepresentation, tortious interference, unfair competition, misappropriation of trade secrets, violation of non-competition covenants and business defamation. Companies of all sizes look to Brooks Wilkins Sharkey & Turco for “bet-the-company” cases in which losing would threaten the client’s continued existence.
Antitrust

Employment Law

Employment Discrimination
Employment Litigation
Many firms defend employment claims, often as part of their insurance defense practice. Brooks Wilkins Sharkey & Turco is different. Clients do not hire us to handle routine employment claims. Instead, our courtroom and arbitration experience has been limited to high-risk harassment and discrimination claims where millions of dollars or the client’s internal policies were at significant risk. We have successfully tried or arbitrated dozens of these cases where settlement simply was not an option, including a recent no-cause verdict in a multi-week federal court trial with more than $5,000,000 in alleged damages.

Property Law

Real Estate Litigation
Litigation is an unavoidable reality for prominent title companies, lenders, property developers, and other commercial entities with interests in high-value real estate transactions. Our litigators have decades of experience representing diverse clients in complex real estate disputes, including mortgage and title disputes, commercial lease disputes, lender, finance, and foreclosure disputes, zoning and land nuisance issues, and priority disputes between lenders with competing secured interests.
Construction Litigation
We proudly represent some of the nation’s and state’s largest general and specialty construction firms. We have successfully represented those clients in a broad spectrum of construction disputes and arbitrations, ranging from multimillion-dollar design and construction defect claims, subcontractor delay claims, bond and lien challenges, and disputes involving a myriad of publicly funded, industrial, and private projects. We also have successfully represented owners and developers in disputes with general contractors, construction managers and their surety bond issuers.

Personal Injury

Finance Law

Bankruptcy
From taking on insolvent automotive suppliers who have threatened to shut down our client’s plants throughout the country, to multimillion-dollar acquisitions of assets out of bankruptcies, to high-stakes bankruptcy litigation, to complex real estate workouts, our attorneys have time and again proven themselves able to develop creative and practical solutions in order to deliver high satisfaction results to our valued clients.
Foreclosure
Debt Collection
There is more than $ 1 trillion in outstanding student loan debt in the U.S. Our lawyers have extensive expertise in litigating issues involving student loans. We have defended hundreds of adversary proceedings filed in bankruptcy court contesting the dischargeability of student loans and represent several companies assigned student loans by state-level guarantors. We are also experienced with litigation involving consumer finance issues, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, state statutory and common law claims, and federal preemption issues. We have prevailed in dozens of trials, and many appeals to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.
