Disputes Resolution

Where a dispute cannot be settled at the table, it is run properly — pleadings, evidence, tribunal and appellate work. Where it can, it is settled. The firm exists, in its own words, to foster amicable resolution of disputes; litigation is the route taken when that route closes.

What this covers

  • Commercial and contractual litigation
  • Arbitration and alternative dispute resolution
  • Appeals to the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court
  • Tribunal proceedings and judicial review
  • Negotiated settlement and mediation
