When our mid-sized manufacturing company in Jacksonville faced a complex breach of contract and unfair competition lawsuit from a former distributor, the stakes were incredibly high. We needed an attorney with deep commercial litigation experience and the strategic acumen to navigate Florida's legal landscape. From our first consultation, Janine Kalagher-McGuire at Conrad & Scherer demonstrated exactly why she has earned recognition in this field. Her analysis was incisive, cutting through the emotional noise to identify the core legal vulnerabilities in the plaintiff's case. Janine’s background, including her long tenure since graduating from Catholic University's law school in '95, was evident in her command of procedure and her ability to anticipate opposing counsel's moves. She guided us through a rigorous discovery process, personally overseeing the document review to build an unassailable defense. Her professionalism was matched by her personal commitment; she was always accessible, explaining each step in clear terms without condescension. The result was a summary judgment in our favor, sparing us the cost and uncertainty of a trial. Janine isn't just a lawyer who knows the law; she's a strategic partner who protects your business. Her recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved, and our company is profoundly grateful for her exceptional service and the positive outcome she secured.
