Litigation

 Our Litigation department recognises that litigation is, more often than not, the means of last resort. For this reason, the firm’s policy has always been, where possible (and where appropriate), to negotiate a favourable settlement rather than resort immediately to litigation. This is not to say that we approach litigation in a “softly” manner – on the contrary, if we cannot achieve our Clients’ aims by negotiation then proceedings are instituted and fought vigorously. Much of the advocacy at court is carried out “in house” thus avoiding as much as possible the additional costs of hiring a Barrister.

The Litigation Department offers specialist advice in the following areas for both Claimant and Defendant:-

• Debt management (we realistic and practical solutions)
• Insolvency / Bankruptcy.
• Commercial and contractual disputes.
• Landlord and tenant (both Landlord and Tenants).
• Personal injury (for claimants only).
• Consumer Advice and Assistance.
• Employment disputes (for both employer and employee).
• Professional negligence.
