We appreciate that litigation is an expensive and time consuming process, which often leaves all parties, including the winner, feeling dissatisfied. Business disputes are however a fact of life and every commercial transaction has the potential to produce disagreement. Our approach therefore is to explore with clients from the outset what their objective is in any dispute and to seek to identify the most speedy and cost-effective route to that end.

The courtroom is increasingly seen as the weapon of last resort and many more disputes are settled by negotiation. If litigation proves inevitable, we seek to establish with our clients a strategy to achieve the agreed goal, balancing this, at all stages of litigation, with costs.

Our solicitors have experience in handling a wide range of matters from major disputes to simple debt collection and in particular the following:

• Contractual disputes
• Debt recovery
• Shareholder disputes
• Agency and Distribution disputes
• Property litigation
