We find the best legal solution to your dispute for your business
When resolving disputes, our aim is to find the most appropriate solution to our client’s business operations. In most cases, this means primarily trying to reach a settlement and avoiding the need for formal dispute processes. If reaching an amicable settlement is not possible, the dispute is generally resolved in court or by arbitration. In that case, achieving a successful outcome for the client requires a combination of legal expertise, thorough preparation and familiarity with the aspects of each case, competence in court strategies along with skillful and persistent presentation of the client’s case in the court.
A number of disputes involve a significant international aspect and we have experience of assisting clients in proceedings in other jurisdictions, working with local counsel to provide a streamlined and comprehensive strategy for the handling of the relevant dispute.
