How the Commercial Real Estate Litigation Process Works

Retain an Attorney

Reach out to our team to schedule your free consultation with an attorney. From there, if you’re ready to move forward and think we’re the best fit, you’ll get started with your new legal team. 

Case Evaluation

We’ll start by reviewing your case and all related documents to understand the facts, financial implications, and your goals. This early analysis helps determine whether litigation, mediation, or arbitration is the right path forward.

Filing the Petition

From there, our team drafts and files a petition in the appropriate Oklahoma court outlining your claims. The opposing party (the defendant) is then formally served and given a set period to respond. 

Discovery

Both sides exchange evidence and information through written discovery, depositions, and document production. This phase is often the most time-intensive and critical, as it builds the foundation for settlement discussions or trial strategy. 

Resolution - Settlement, Mediation, or Trial

Many cases resolve through negotiated settlements or court-ordered mediation. If settlement isn’t possible, the case proceeds to trial, where a judge or jury determines the outcome. Our attorneys handle every stage — from pre-trial motions to verdict and, if necessary, appeal — with focus and precision. 

Real Estate Litigation Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of real estate litigation does Ball Morse Lowe take on?

We represent clients in Oklahoma City and throughout the state with cases involving defects and disclosure disputes, boundary and adverse possession claims, title and ownership disputes, breach of real estate contracts, and construction disputes and lien enforcement.
How do I know if I have a litigious real estate case?

Determining whether you have a valid case starts with understanding the facts, contracts, and circumstances surrounding your dispute. In commercial real estate matters, key factors include whether a binding agreement was breached, financial harm resulted, or a party failed to uphold legal or contractual obligations.

At Ball Morse Lowe, we begin every engagement with a thorough review of your situation — examining documents, communications, and timelines to assess the strength of your claims and potential risks. Even if litigation isn’t the best path, we’ll give you an honest, informed assessment of your options so you can make confident decisions about how to move forward.
Can my case be resolved without going to trial?

Yes. In fact, many cases settle before reaching trial. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who pursue favorable resolutions through mediation or direct settlement discussions when possible. If trial becomes necessary, we’re fully prepared to advocate for you in court.
How much will a commercial real estate lawsuit cost? Litigation is an investment of time, energy, and money. While it’s impossible to say without knowing the details, even for modest cases, legal costs can range from $50,000 to well over $100,000, depending on complexity, discovery needs, and trial preparation.
