Dispute Resolution
Dispute Resolution
Strategic resolution of contested matters, from early negotiation through mediation to trial.
Overview
How we approach dispute resolution
Litigation is a commercial decision. Before issuing anything, we set out the realistic range of outcomes, the cost of each route and the point at which settlement becomes the better option.
Most matters settle. We prepare every matter as though it will not.
Common situations
- Unpaid invoices and debt recovery
- Breach of contract and misrepresentation
- Professional negligence claims
- Shareholder and partnership disputes
- Property and boundary disputes
Our Process
Four stages, agreed in advance
A consistent structure applied to every matter in this fictional practice.
01
Initial consultation
A structured first conversation where we map out your dispute position, the outcome you want and the realistic routes to get there.
02
Scope and cost agreement
You receive a written plan setting out the work, who will carry it out and a transparent fee structure before anything begins.
03
Strategy and progress
Your named solicitor progresses the matter, negotiates on your behalf and updates you in plain English at every meaningful stage.
04
Resolution and aftercare
We conclude the matter, hand over a clear record of what was agreed and set out anything you should review in the future.
