Dispute resolution

Helping you to achieve your commercial objectives, minimise disruption, and manage costs.

In an increasingly globalised and fast changing commercial environment, disputes are an inevitable part of business.

Not only can we help resolve disputes once they arise, but we also work with you to reduce the risk of litigation in the first place.

Whatever the challenge, we’re equipped to help you navigate it smoothly. We handle your problems as if they were our own, working closely with you to provide practical solutions that align with your business goals.

Our team includes not only a substantial group of litigators but also experts in alternative dispute resolution, international and domestic arbitration, and mediation. Additionally, we offer risk mitigation and investigation services to help you identify potential issues and understand past problems, allowing us to pinpoint causes and implement effective solutions.

We’ve litigated cases at every level of the English and Northern Irish courts up to the Supreme Court, and before the European Court of Justice, and are frequently involved in groundbreaking and high-profile cases.

Whether managing high-profile, complex cases or resolving matters quietly behind the scenes, our clients rely on our insight to help them stay one step ahead.

Alternative dispute resolution

If you’re facing early-stage contentious issues, we can identify the best course of action to avoid costly and time-consuming court proceedings. Whether it be settlement facilitation assistance, early neutral evaluation, or mediation, our team can guide you through the process to resolve your dispute.

We’re highly experienced at resolving disputes through mediation, negotiated resolution or other mechanisms, and members of our team are CEDR accredited mediators.

Where it’s not possible to avoid proceedings, we develop settlement strategies ahead of trial to enable a commercial resolution as early as possible.
