This is the first story in our new legal roundup data section. We'll soon give it a snappy new name. The data provides an incredible glimpse behind the scenes on what businesses are doing in circuit courts. But be warned, there are a ton of "trip and fall" lawsuits. Some interesting cases this week: a printer wants $20,000 from a magazine publisher it says didn't pay for copies, according to the lawsuit. Also this week, a hardware supplier wants more than $20,000 from a builder it says didn't pay. ]]> http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2010/05/24/legal-roundup/feed/ 1 http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/11/19/wealth-advisors-strike-out-on-their-own/ http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/11/19/wealth-advisors-strike-out-on-their-own/#comments Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:59:09 +0000 Aaron Kremer http://www.richmondbizsense.com/?p=13437 Here’s a trend to watch for small businesses around Richmond that worked with the now-departed Wachovia Securities: Wealth advisors continue leaving big banks and investment firms to run their own wealth management businesses. And most of their investment approaches are similar: trying to help wealthy clients find steady returns. That means likely no home runs, but hopefully no blow-ups, either]]> http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/11/19/wealth-advisors-strike-out-on-their-own/feed/ 0 http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/10/23/the-pipeline-commercial-real-estate-round-up-for-10-23-09/ http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/10/23/the-pipeline-commercial-real-estate-round-up-for-10-23-09/#comments Fri, 23 Oct 2009 09:20:35 +0000 Al Harris http://www.richmondbizsense.com/?p=12603 Batzli Wood & Stiles, a family law practice, leased 11,900 square feet in Westerre II, 3957 Westerre Parkway in Henrico.

Two quarters ago, the number of SBA loans was down more than 50 percent from the previous year. But as the fiscal year comes to a close, the Richmond office saw more loans issued this quarter than last. Two local businesses (the Boathouse at Rocketts Landing and Handcraft Cleaners) relied on those loans to expand]]> http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/09/30/sba-lending-rebounds/feed/ 0 http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/07/24/bbt-investment-arm-sued-by-little-rock-firm/ http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/07/24/bbt-investment-arm-sued-by-little-rock-firm/#comments Fri, 24 Jul 2009 11:21:33 +0000 Al Harris http://www.richmondbizsense.com/?p=9761 Scott & Stringfellow, the investment-banking subsidiary of BB&T, is being sued for stealing clients and company secrets as it recruited analysts from a competitor’s Richmond office]]> http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/07/24/bbt-investment-arm-sued-by-little-rock-firm/feed/ 0 http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/06/04/local-builder-files-for-bankruptcy-protection/ http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/06/04/local-builder-files-for-bankruptcy-protection/#comments Thu, 04 Jun 2009 10:37:11 +0000 Al Harris http://www.richmondbizsense.com/?p=8115 Prospect Homes, a local homebuilder for more than 25 years, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Tuesday. The company owes more than $50 million to hundreds of creditors. Many businesses listed as creditors were not surprised by the news, as checks had been late in arriving for at least six months. But several local business owners said they kept working with Prospect after Audi met with them, in part because they wanted future work and had known the company for decades. ]]> http://www.richmondbizsense.com/2009/06/04/local-builder-files-for-bankruptcy-protection/feed/ 1
