Litigation

Civil litigation is the method of resolving disputes or claims between individuals, companies, local authorities and government departments.

Such disputes fall into many categories and can range from the very minor to the highly valuable.

We can advise you on:

• Contract disputes
• Negligence claims
• Property and boundary disputes
• Landlord and tenant matters
• Debt and money claims
• Enforcement of judgments
• Partnership disputes

We will advise you on your chances of success and the possible value of your claim. We can negotiate on your behalf and if necessary commence or defend proceedings. Court action may not always be the best way of resolving a dispute and we can advise on alternative procedures such as mediation and arbitration which may be more appropriate.

Subject to certain conditions Legal Aid may be available to assist you with the cost of presenting your case.
