Ogborn, Summerlin & Ogborn, LLC

The law firm of Ogborn, Summerlin & Ogborn, LLC serves independent contractors, large and small businesses, LLCs, corporations, employers, construction companies, and other commercial entities involved in commerce. From our Denver, Colorado and Lincoln, Nebraska law offices, we work in partnership with our clients in all areas of business and commercial law including breach of contract disputes, employee v. independent contractor disputes, business disputes, employee benefits, and many other business dispute issues.

The attorneys at OSO have tried hundreds of cases in state and federal jurisdictions all over Colorado, Nebraska and in other jurisdictions of the country. The courtroom is our natural habitat, but we will not take you there unless your case should be tried. Litigation is an expensive proposition. If there is a better remedy, whether mediation, negotiation, arbitration or some other form of alternative dispute resolution, we will let you know.

We Are Business Trial Lawyers

We are not commercial contract litigation attorneys. Litigation attorneys prepare for trial. They rarely try cases. At OSO, we prepare every case as if it were going to trial. The goal is to focus the case and evidence so that it will be persuasive and easy for a judge or jury to understand. In most cases, it is not important to spend the client's resources on making sure that every motion that could be filed is filed. Nor is it usually important to depose every living human being that was even remotely involved. Because our focus is the courtroom, OSO is adept at preparing a case that will give the client the best opportunity to succeed.

OSO Efficiently Solves Your Business Problems

From the first day we represent you, our business trial lawyers begin to try your case. We prepare as if trial will occur. While we refuse to cut corners, we recognize that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. We will not waste your money or your time and we will keep you informed. We will tell you early whether we believe you can win, but we will not guess or puff. Truth and trust are two crucial ingredients in the attorney/client relationship.

Business Trial Lawyers Focused on Client Goals

We make sure we spend whatever time is necessary to find the underlying cause of your particular business dispute. We always work with the client and the unique set of facts that comes with each client to develop a litigation strategy that makes sense. Each client's individual goals are carefully established and rigorously pursued. To those ends we vow:

• To explain legal theories and strategies in plain English and make sure we have communicated effectively.
• To answer phone and e-mail messages immediately and respond within 24 hours (or we'll let you know why we are not available).
• To tell you we do not know the answer to your question (if we don't) rather than give you legalese psychobabble.
• To give one lawyer the responsibility to be in charge of your case and to communicate with you.
• To take your case if it has merit, and graciously inform you if we believe your case has marginal merit.

Workable Fee Arrangements

We are willing to adjust to our clients' needs to develop creative fee arrangements that recognize and adapt to the economic realities of the particular business dispute. Our law firm has designed fee packages involving traditional hourly rates, blended rates, flat fees, contingent fees and modified percentage/hourly fee arrangements.

Choosing a business trial lawyer is an important matter. If you have a business contract dispute, an employment law issue or any other business and commercial law legal need, please call or contact our law firm.

We listen. We respond. We solve your business problems.
