Dispute Resolution

A great track record of success in court proceedings and mediation

If you find yourself in a dispute, then our expert dispute resolution team are on hand to help you resolve it. They will assist you to achieve the best possible outcome, quickly and with the minimum of hassle and cost. Therefore you will save on time, money and stress.

Our litigation team are experts in court proceedings, enforcement processes and in alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation. We are partnered with a mediation network to help you find a great mediator to resolve your dispute, so you are less likely to need to go to court where you would face greater cost and delay.

Sometimes a well-written letter can nip things in the bud before parties become entrenched in their positions. Our best recent achievement was quickly resolving a £1 million manufacturing dispute after just one great letter written by one of our experts. Thus the dispute was resolved without its escalating into a prolonged legal battle. Naturally, our client was delighted.
