Disputes can occur for a number of reasons. Whether you are having problems with shareholders, a dispute over contract terms, or would like to protect your business name, our specialist solicitors can help to resolve the matter as promptly and economically as possible.
Our aim is to gain a rapid understanding of our client's objectives and work with you to agree and achieve clearly defined goals. If you intend to submit a claim or are the subject of a claim made against you, it is important from the outset that the merits of your case are considered and explained clearly.
We recognise the various demands that litigation often places on the client, and so take great care to prepare solutions that are not only effective but which are also practical in terms of cost, risk, time and demands on your company's resources.
We will provide clear cost estimates for each stage of your case and will review these with you on a regular basis. We will consider with you the funding options for your case and if appropriate act for you on a discounted fee agreement or a conditional fee agreement (often referred to as a “no win - no fee”) .
We will also consider with you whether a legal expense insurance policy may be appropriate for your case and if so we will seek and obtain such a policy on your behalf. This will ensure that your cost outlay on a case can be predicted or capped with some degree of certainty.
Our dispute resolution department deals with all forms of commercial disputes ranging from High Court and County Court proceedings through to alternative dispute resolution.
