We act for individuals and businesses in civil disputes, including contractual and shareholder matters. We assess the evidence, explain the available options and provide representation through negotiation, settlement discussions and court proceedings.
A legal dispute can place pressure on your finances, business relationships and day-to-day operations. We begin by understanding what has happened, what is at stake and what you hope to achieve. We review the relevant agreements, correspondence and supporting evidence to assess the legal issues and your position.
Our advice addresses the strengths and weaknesses of a claim or defence, the likely steps involved and the costs and practical considerations of pursuing the matter. We also identify gaps in the available evidence and help organise the documents needed to support your position.
Where appropriate, we explore negotiation or mediation to determine whether a workable resolution can be reached. Settlement discussions require careful consideration of both the proposed terms and their consequences. We help you assess those terms before deciding whether to settle or continue with proceedings.
If court action is required, we prepare the necessary documents and evidence and represent you during the proceedings. Our work includes contractual disputes, shareholder disputes and matters requiring urgent court intervention. We consider how each step affects your wider interests and keep you informed as the matter develops.
