HOW OUR QUALIFIED LAWYERS CAN HELP YOU

Disputes are more common than you think. Understanding and dealing with them in a professional and commercial way is essential. It can be a stressful, time consuming and expensive experience, but we aim to take the strain.

The attorneys in our litigation department cover a wide range of capacities within the area of Dispute Resolution. Whatever the nature of your dispute, you can rely on our solicitors to support you through the process.

Property Disputes

There are many disputes that can arise through a property. Whether it’s a commercial or residential property, our aim is to come to a resolution as quickly as possible.

Although disputes are not a welcome part of property, ensuring that the issue is dealt with correctly is key.

Types of property disputes

Ownership issues – Ownership disputes can arise from a range of circumstances, including but not limited to; buying a property with friends or family, shared ownership, inheritance, and divorce.

Boundaries and right of way issues – We combine these two areas of property dispute, mostly because in many of the cases we undertake, these exist together.

Building disputes – The litigation process for building disputes primarily involves building & engineering contracts. When you pay for a building service you expect the best level of work. If that level is not met, then you are well within your right to seek legal advice from our building dispute lawyers.

Challenging Wills

Contesting a Will can seem like a process that feels unnecessary. But if you feel that you have been inadequately provided for in your relative’s Will, then our experienced Dispute Resolution lawyers can support you.

Occasions which can prompt legal action:

  • The deceased died before making a Will, and their properties were distributed against the promises that the individual made whilst alive.
  • The belief that a family member’s or friend’s Will fails to reflect their final requests.
  • Change of circumstances after the Will had been originally completed.
  • The failure of their step children being provided for.

Work with an experienced team.

Our dispute Resolution lawyers are extremely experienced in the process of challenging Wills. Alongside their comprehensive knowledge, they take a human approach during such an emotional and overwhelming time.

By consulting with a Dispute Resolution representative, you can assess your entitlements and act accordingly. Our lawyers will determine if you have standing to contest the Will, then whether you can file the contest in time, and if you have sufficient grounds to contest it.

Inheritance Disputes

Losing a loved one is an extremely difficult time for you and your family. When an issue arises with their inheritance, it is unwelcome tension. We as a team understand this and will endeavour to work quickly and efficiently through this trying time.

As soon as you feel that there is an issue, seeking expert advice quickly is the key. There are strict time-restrictions and deadlines that must be met to dispute inheritance or a Will.

Professional Negligence

Seeking professional negligence advice is essential in the world of business. If a professional fails to deliver on their part, it can become an extremely difficult process where a lot of time and money has been wasted, and all trust has been lost.

Negligent advice is not acceptable, so if you have been a victim of professional negligence, it’s vital to seek specialist advice from our accomplished litigation team.

Our team are experienced.

Our wealth of experience means you can be confident in our administration and management of professional negligence claims. Not only do we have the knowledge to guide you, but we have relevant contacts to support us throughout the process.

Employment Issues

Employment issue cases are those that are very common. If any disagreement is not dealt with correctly, fairly and promptly, however minor it may seem, it can develop into a much bigger problem for everyone involved.

We’re available to support you with all employment issues; whether from the view of an employer or employee.

If you have already tried to deal with the issue by yourself through arranging a chat with the individual that you’re in dispute with and it hasn’t repaired the issue, then this is when we recommend seeking legal advice.
