Commercial Litigation
"Cost effective and creative"
For any business, disputes are an unfortunate fact of life. At best they are an unwelcome distraction, costing time and money; at worst they can bring a business to its knees.
We cannot promise to resolve your dispute; that is the job of a judge or an arbitrator if the parties cannot reach agreement themselves. However, we can promise to give you an honest, informed assessment of the merits of your position and commercial strategic advice to ensure that you are in the best position to make a commercial decision about the way forward.
Our solicitors have considerable experience of the different forms of dispute resolution including litigation, arbitration and mediation. However you instruct us to proceed, we will deal with your dispute pragmatically, commercially and cost effectively.
We have particular expertise in the following areas:
We pride ourselves on our ability to be creative and to offer an innovative service. We can offer a range of flexible charging structures including retainer fees and "no win, no fee" arrangements.
No Win No Fee
"No win, no fee" arrangements are more properly known as Conditional Fee Agreements (CFAs). In appropriate cases we can agree not to charge you unless you successfully conclude your dispute. To find out more information about CFAs click here or contact any member of the Commercial Litigation team.
