We all enter into contracts, whether as businesses or as individuals. Contracts may be written or verbal and set out the relationship of the parties to each other. Whilst all is going well the parties generally remain content with the relationship and believe they understand what it involves. However, when something goes wrong thoughts turn to what exactly what was agreed and a dispute arises.
Dispute resolution is about:
- Sorting out what has happened
- Establishing what was meant by an agreement
- Finding a satisfactory resolution to the problem
The Dispute resolution department works closely with its clients to find practical, cost-effective answers through the following methods:
- Negotiation
- Mediation
- Arbitration
- Litigation
We work hard to resolve disputes thorough methods other than litigation, which can be costly and worrying. However:
- Where tough talk is required we speak up
- Where tough action is needed we take it
We have successfully resolved:-
- Disputes over partnerships
- Property interests
- Arguments with insurers over indemnity
- Disputes over sales of goods and services
- Transport loss claims
- Claims over defective manufacture
- Multi-million pound trust claims
