Working with Jose
Understand the business behind the matter.
A contract or a dispute rarely exists in isolation. It affects operating decisions, relationships, resources, and the people responsible for moving a business forward. Jose brings that practical context to his work with business owners.
His practice combines business counsel with a trial perspective. He helps clients consider the obligations they are taking on, the risks that deserve attention, and the choices available when a commercial relationship becomes difficult.
The starting point is a clear understanding of the facts and the objective. From there, the proposed work can be defined around the issue the client needs to address.
Agreements with the relationship in mind.
Business documents should reflect the arrangement the parties actually intend. Jose discusses responsibilities, compensation, performance expectations, and the consequences of a disagreement in the context of the transaction.
For an existing agreement, the task may begin with identifying a specific concern and considering how it affects the next business decision.
A measured response to a dispute.
When a disagreement arises, the first questions concern the documents, the history, the practical stakes, and the available paths. Jose works with clients to evaluate those issues and discuss a course consistent with their objectives.
The appropriate engagement depends on the parties, the jurisdiction, and the nature of the dispute.
Complementary roles within the firm.
Jose's business and trial practice complements the firm's patent work. Vik Parti leads patent applications and representation before the USPTO as the firm's registered patent attorney. Each matter is handled according to the attorneys' respective roles and admissions.
