Working to Resolve Disputes Out of Court — But Ready to Go to Trial
Whenever possible, we strive to resolve breach of contract disputes through skillful, efficient, and cost-effective negotiations. But we also know that some parties are not prepared to settle out of court.

Our litigators also represent clients before Michigan administrative agencies such as the Michigan Tax Tribunal, the Michigan Department of Civil Rights, and the Michigan State Tax Commission.
On the federal level, we handle matters in all of the U.S. District Courts and Bankruptcy Courts within Michigan and Illinois. At the appellate level, we appear before the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court. We also represent clients before federal agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and the Surface Transportation Board of the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Just because you did not prevail at trial doesn’t mean the trial court got it right. Unfavorable outcomes can be overturned and reversed on appeal. Our lawyers, at Pentiuk, Couvreur & Kobiljak, P.C., are more than capable of handling your appellate needs.
