Litigation

Disputes can arise unexpectedly and often feel stressful, whether they involve a business issue or a personal matter. At such times, you need clear, practical advice from a legal team that understands your concerns and will protect your interests while keeping matters proportionate and under control.

Our Dispute Resolution team works closely with you to help resolve disputes efficiently and with as little disruption as possible. We focus on achieving the right outcome for you in a practical and cost-effective way, exploring negotiation and alternative dispute resolution first and only progressing matters formally where this is necessary to safeguard your position.

Our approach

We understand that every dispute is different and that uncertainty can be unsettling. From the outset, we take the time to understand your situation, explain your options clearly and agree a strategy that reflects what you want to achieve. We will assess the strengths and weaknesses of your case, provide realistic advice on likely costs and timescales, and keep you informed at every stage so you always know where you stand.

Our aim is to resolve disputes in a proportionate and commercially sensible way, avoiding unnecessary escalation wherever possible.

Our dispute resolution services

We act for individuals, landlords, tenants and businesses across a wide range of disputes, including:

Contract disputes
Debt recovery
Landlord and tenant matters
Property and boundary disputes
Professional negligence claims
Partnership and shareholder disputes
Consumer disputes
Inheritance and trust disputes

If formal proceedings become necessary, we have experience acting in both the County Court and the High Court and will represent you confidently and robustly throughout.

Alternative dispute resolution (ADR)

Court proceedings are not always the best way to resolve a dispute. In many cases, a negotiated or mediated solution can achieve a quicker, more cost-effective outcome and help preserve important personal or commercial relationships. We will discuss whether alternative dispute resolution is suitable for your circumstances and guide you through the process in a clear, supportive and practical way.

Costs and funding

We believe that clarity on costs is essential. At the outset, we will explain likely fees, discuss available funding options and outline any potential risks, enabling you to make informed decisions with confidence and no unwelcome surprises.
