Dispute Resolution FAQs

What is involved in a dispute resolution process?

Initially one of our dispute resolution solicitors will gather preliminary evidence, assess your case and provide you with our initial thoughts on the strength and complexity of your case. Depending on what is at stake and the complexity of the case it may be useful to use a barrister to advise on the legal position. At this stage we may then take witness statements from key actors.

Most of the time we are able to then resolve things through negotiation with the other side and end the dispute with the parties involved singing a settlement agreement. If a formal legal process is needed then we will issue a claim and pursue the case in the courts.

What should you look for in a dispute resolution solicitor?

A dispute resolution solicitor should act quickly to understand your case and establish the merits of your claim or defence. Dealing with a dispute is not only costly, it is very distracting – our clients want to get on with running their business and driving sales so helping them resolve problems quickly is essential.

A dispute resolution solicitor should be an excellent communicator so that the client is open and honest with them about the background to the dispute.

What is the effect of a dispute resolution clause in a contract?

One of the first things a dispute resolution solicitor should check is whether there is a legally binding dispute resolution clause in the written agreement entered into between the parties. The clause should describe the law that governs the contract and how disputes should be dealt with, for example, through court proceedings or through arbitration.

The clause may also specify that the parties should pursue alternative dispute resolution such as mediation to try and resolve the dispute prior to commencing any further proceedings.
