Sex Crimes
In a case involving claims of sexual assault and medical malpractice against a long term care provider, the defense obtained dismissal via summary judgment at the trial court level. Pro-se Plaintiff sought an appeal of the dismissal but filed his Notice of Appeal one day late and asked the Court of Appeals to allow his belatedly filed appeal to proceed arguing that he had good cause for the untimely filing as he was incarcerated and did not have access to the jailhouse law library. The Court of Appeals initially granted Plaintiff’s request to file the belated appeal but reversed this decision after Defendants filed a Motion to Reconsider. The defense identified multiple other litigation matters pro-se Plaintiff was involved in and utilized filings made by pro-se Plaintiff in those cases as evidence to establish that during the time period he claimed he could not file his Notice of Appeal he was actively filing multiple pleadings and motions in those other matters. The Court of Appeals reviewed the evidence tendered, agreed with the defense and vacated their prior order dismissing Plaintiff’s appeal.

Business Formation
Ray also represents companies and their owners with business formation, shareholder agreements, financing, acquisitions, leasing, franchising, and shareholder disputes. Through his work as a Certified Public Accountant before attending Indiana University School of Law, Ray gained experience with auditing entities and their financial statements, which provides a strong foundation for his work as a litigation and business lawyer.
Business Disputes
Contract disputes form the basis for most business litigation. Ideally, every contract would be in writing and well-drafted. However, not all contracts are in writing, and even written contracts may inadvertently leave some issues unclear or unaddressed. Our business litigation attorneys excel in handling these and other complex factual and legal issues. Our attorneys have resolved hundreds of contract disputes through negotiation, mediation and, if necessary, litigation. Whether your case involves a straightforward two-party dispute or more complicated issues involving several parties, multiple areas of the law, or a contract described in a dozen or more separate documents, our team of business litigation attorneys will work to resolve your matter with the careful consideration it deserves.

Employment Litigation
Inevitably, businesses need help resolving disputes that arise internally (among shareholders, members, or employment issues) or externally with vendors, landlords, customers, or competitors. RBE’s business litigators are experienced in helping to resolve disputes without litigation whenever possible, and pursuing or defending claims in litigation. Many times our attorneys work “behind the scenes” to make sure our clients are in the best position to prevail should litigation ensue – and we’ll be honest with you if you need to employ other measures to avoid liability. Here, litigation attorneys are your allies that provide protection to your company’s interests well before you come near a courtroom, working hard to meet your goals as efficiently as expeditiously as possible.
