Litigation

Litigation is the legal term for dispute resolution. The issue can be between individuals, private companies or public organisations. In all cases, our aim is to guide you through the process, providing legal advice on the best way forward.

In cases of litigation, emotions are often running high. Clients are looking to the law to understand and support their side of the argument. Our experienced litigators will take time to fully understand the case and your perspective. We will work to build a strong case to support you and to challenge the opposing party.

Our solicitors can advise on a wide range of disputes including:

  • Commercial litigation
  • Debt collection
  • Boundary and neighbour disputes
  • Landlords and tenants
  • Wills, inheritance issues and claims

Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution

In many litigation cases facilitated discussions, mediation and negotiation can result in a satisfactory conclusion of the case. Our focus in on achieving your priorities for an acceptable outcome.
