Attorney David S. Katz was recently named a Super Lawyer by Thomson Reuters for 2022, the third year in a row that he has been recognized as one of the top business lawyers in the state of Massachusetts.

The distinction puts him among the top 5 percent of lawyers in the state, and recognizes his top-notch legal representation across a variety of fields related to business, contract, and employment law.

Distinction Recognizes Valuable Work Drafting and Negotiating Business Contracts

Some of attorney Katz's successes in the past year have been through his work negotiating, drafting, and handling contracts for his business clients, many of which are small businesses. With his help, businesses large and small have:

• Gotten difficult contracts declared void
• Enforced or defending against a breach of contract
• Modified contracts
• Assigned contracts to third parties
• Enforced oral or verbal contracts
• Ensured their contracts have complied with the statute of frauds
• Defended against contracts that were impossible or impracticable to complete
• Dealt with force majeure clauses

Whether through his work creating, negotiating, enforcing, or challenging these contractual provisions, attorney Katz has advocated vigorously on his clients' behalf and been recognized for excellence for doing so for the third consecutive year.

• Evicting commercial tenants
• Assigning or subletting a commercial lease
• Enforcing the provisions in a commercial lease agreement
