Civil Litigation Attorney
When Going to Court Is the Solution

Civil and Commercial Litigation Attorneys in Southeast Michigan



Approached with a reasonable perspective and a willingness to bend a little, here or there — most disputes can be resolved without having to go to court. But, if settlement efforts fail, you need an experienced lawyer on your side that is not afraid to pursue or defend your case with litigation.


At Melder & Melder, P.C., we handle criminal defense, commercial lawsuits and civil litigation for clients throughout Oakland, Macomb, St. Clair, Wayne, Livingston and Washtenaw counties and southeast Michigan. If you find yourself facing any of these types of litigation — we can help. Get the legal advice and representation you need by calling us or contacting us online today.

Minimizing Costs and Risks Wherever Possible

Wherever possible, we strive to resolve our clients' disputes through negotiation or trial alternatives such as mediation and arbitration. Often, we have success.



However, as much as we would like to help every client avoid the costs, lengthy delays and unpredictable results a trial can bring — the reality is that litigation is the only option you have in some cases. That said — our criminal and civil litigation practice includes:

  • General civil litigation
  • Business litigation
  • Family law and divorce litigation
  • Real estate litigation
  • Landlord-tenant litigation
  • Probate litigation
  • Personal injury litigation
  • Debt collection litigation
  • Bankruptcy litigation
  • Criminal defense
