Dispute Resolution

There's no doubt that legal disputes of any kind can lead to sleepless nights. But sharing your legal problems with us will help reduce the pressure and ensure a satisfactory resolution.

Nobody wants to become involved in a dispute but when this does occur the importance of expert, solid legal advice can't be over-emphasised. Members of our litigation team are commercially aware lawyers who put careful thought and consideration into each case. They understand the issues involved in litigation and look after business and individual clients alike.

We are acutely aware that disputes are, first, best avoided and, second, settled as soon as possible on the best commercial terms. Disputes can ruin business relationships and soak up valuable management time and attention – not to mention costs.

With the Courts increasingly requiring mediation at an early stage our experienced litigation lawyers are familiar with mediation as a way of settling disputes early and cost effectively. We regularly advise on the suitability of mediation to our clients at every stage of the dispute. But should court proceedings be necessary or appropriate in your case, you will find us skilled and equipped.

Areas of our expertise include;

• Contract/commercial disputes
• Partnership disputes
• Joint venture/partnership disputes
• Professional negligence claims
• Debt recovery
• Disputes over wills and inheritance claims
• Consumer problems
• Holidays and travel
