A Lifeline for Our Family Business Dispute

When a major supplier's breach of contract threatened to derail our family-owned construction company, we turned to Craig Shikuma. From our first consultation, his 40 years of experience were evident. He didn't just see the legal conflict; he understood the operational and financial pressure it placed on our entire business. Craig meticulously explained our options, focusing on a strategy that aimed for a swift, favorable resolution without unnecessary litigation costs. His deep knowledge of both commercial litigation and the specific nuances of construction law, honed over decades in Honolulu, was invaluable. He navigated complex contract clauses and industry standards with authority, which clearly commanded respect from the opposing counsel. The result was a settlement that not only covered our losses but preserved a critical business relationship. Seeing his 'Lawyer of the Year' recognition for Construction Law wasn't just an accolade on a website—it was the expertise that saved our livelihood. Craig and his team at Kobayashi Sugita & Goda provided exceptional, personalized service with the highest professionalism. We are profoundly grateful.
