Dispute resolution
Dealing with disputes can be a stressful and daunting prospect, particularly given the risks and costs associated with litigation. Our dispute resolution team are focussed on achieving positive outcomes and, where possible, resolving disputes at an early stage and often without the need to resort to the courts.
Our team provides a partner-led service innovatively advising on all aspects of dispute resolution, including the various alternative dispute resolution options, through to litigation and arbitration.
We work closely with our clients to understand their needs and set realistic objectives regarding strategy and expectations management.
The strength and depth of our practice enable us to assemble suitable teams to provide you with comprehensive legal advice and representation.
We act for individuals on various personal matters related to their finances, property, employment, shareholdings, business or family matters.
Our clients come from a cross-section of people, including professionals such as barristers and surgeons, high net-worth individuals (living here and abroad), professional sports persons, journalists and figures in the entertainment industry.
Our expertise covers commercial disputes, civil claims, professional negligence claims, employment claims, regulatory investigations and proceedings, and criminal investigations and prosecutions.
