Biography

Stephen Biggs focuses his practice on appellate work, protecting the intellectual property and reputation of individuals and businesses, and preventing and solving business disputes.

Appellate practice: Stephen assists individuals, businesses, and other lawyers in appealing a ruling from one court to a higher court and in defending against appeals taken by opposing parties. His appellate experience encompasses cases involving many different areas of the law, including business and commercial disputes, questions of statutory interpretation, issues regarding the enforceability of contractual provisions, criminal matters, defamation claims, and unemployment insurance benefits.

Protecting intellectual property: Stephen assists individuals and businesses in pursuing and defending against claims of trade secret misappropriation, trademark infringement, copyright infringement, unfair competition, and violation of nondisclosure and noncompete agreements.

Defending reputations: Your good name matters, whether you are an individual or a business. In the age of the internet, it is easier than ever for harmful, negative statements to be communicated to large audiences instantaneously. Stephen assists individuals and businesses in protecting their reputation when others defame, slander, or libel them. But not all negative comments are defamatory, and the First Amendment and other free speech protections allow people to say some uncomfortable things about others. Consequently, Stephen also assists those who have been wrongfully accused of defamation, slander, or libel in defending against those claims.

Preventing and solving business disputes: Stephen helps individuals and businesses avoid and solve disputes, both before and after they become lawsuits. This includes assisting clients with contract disputes, fraud claims, business management disputes, breach of fiduciary duty claims, business ownership disputes, failed business deals, and professional negligence.
