Our litigation team acts for individuals and businesses across the full range of civil and commercial disputes.
Civil Litigation
Disputes between individuals — money owed, broken agreements, damage to property, and other claims that need resolving formally.
Commercial Litigation
Disputes between businesses, with suppliers or customers, and between shareholders or partners. Resolved with the commercial relationship in mind.
Debt Recovery
Recovering unpaid invoices and money owed to you or your business, from the first demand letter through to enforcing a judgment.
Contract Disputes
Where one side has not done what was agreed — whether that is paying, delivering, or performing work to the standard required.
Professional Negligence
Claims against accountants, surveyors, financial advisers, and other professionals whose advice or work fell below the standard expected.
Property Litigation
Disputes over land and buildings, including ownership, rights of way, and disagreements between landlords and tenants that have reached court.
How a Dispute Is Resolved — Step by Step
Most disputes follow the same stages, and the large majority settle well before a hearing.
Free Consultation
We look at what has happened and the documents you have, and give you an honest view of where you stand.
Letter Before Claim
We set out your position formally to the other side and give them the opportunity to respond before anything is issued.
Negotiation
We work towards a settlement through correspondence, meetings, or mediation. Most matters are resolved here.
Court Proceedings
Where settlement is not possible, we issue the claim or defend it, and prepare the evidence needed to support your case.
Judgment & Recovery
Once a decision is made, we advise on the next steps — including recovering what you have been awarded.

Enforcing a Judgment
Where you have won but the other side still has not paid, we advise on the steps available to recover it.
Is It Worth Pursuing?
This is the first question we answer, and the most important one. Being in the right is not always enough on its own. What matters is whether the claim can be proved, whether the other side is able to pay, and whether the likely outcome justifies the time involved.
Sometimes the honest answer is that a strongly worded letter will resolve things. Sometimes it is that the dispute is worth pursuing all the way. Occasionally it is that the sensible course is to walk away. We would rather tell you that at the first meeting than months later.
Get an Honest ViewTime Limits Apply
Most claims must be brought within a set period, and once that passes the right to claim can be lost entirely. If a dispute has been rumbling on, take advice sooner rather than later.
Keep Your Evidence
Contracts, emails, invoices, messages, and photographs all matter. Keep everything, and do not delete anything that relates to the dispute.
Can They Pay?
Winning a case is only worthwhile if the other side can pay what is awarded. We look at this early so you are not pursuing a judgment that cannot be recovered.
Settlement Is Usual
The large majority of disputes settle before a hearing. A realistic offer made at the right time often achieves a better result than a trial.
