A business dispute generally involves disagreements related to contractual obligations, financial transactions, ownership interests, or operational control within a commercial context. These conflicts can occur between business partners, clients, suppliers, or other parties involved in your enterprise.

Understanding key terms related to business disputes helps you make informed decisions. Below are definitions of common concepts you may encounter during the dispute resolution process.
