  Disputes-Workouts & Litigation

We often assist clients and their counsel when communications and technology issues arise in the course of broader litigation. We assist in state and federal court proceedings, and in a variety of mediation and arbitration settings, on issues including:

  • The proper interpretation of contract and/or tariff provisions;
  • Application of the filed tariff doctrine (which once foreclosed claims under contract and tort law);
  • Cost, reliability, and service levels established for custom networks and network services;
  • Limits on carrier liability;
  • Billing disputes;
  • Discrimination among customers in rates, terms, and conditions; and
  • The regulatory fees and surcharges applicable to negotiated service contracts.
