Civil Disputes

Unfortunately disputes cannot always be avoided and can occur across a wide variety of issues. If you are involved in a dispute we understand your priority will be to resolve the situation as efficiently and effectively as possible.
 
Our team has experience of resolving disputes in many areas including:

  • Contract claims
  • Consumer matters
  • Housing problems
  • Land issues
  • Neighbour disputes
  • Probate or estate disputes

If your case is brought to Court you can be assured that our team will provide the highest level of representation to protect your interest and maximise your chances of success.

However, resolving a dispute does not necessarily mean going to Court.  There are alternative dispute resolution processes available through mediation or arbitration and we will be able to advise you on the right course of action for your specific situation.

Mediation is a process by which those involved in a claim, dispute or court case reach a solution by talking, listening and negotiating with the help of an independent mediator. Mediation has become a popular route as it allows you to take control of your dispute and can bring about a result in much less time.

A particular specialist area of our work is in probate or estate disputes, representing executors or personal representatives of an estate or putting challenges forward to the estate, whether on behalf of a beneficiary or another party.
