Civil Litigation

Seeking early resolutions; protecting reputations

Many of our clients occupy high profile positions in their personal, public and professional lives and we appreciate the impact a protracted dispute can have. We take decisive and strategic action to strengthen our clients’ positions and draw disputes to efficient conclusions.

Our recommendations include experts in niche areas of law such as media law, reputation and defamation, meaning we are well equipped to advise on reputation management and take all possible steps to resolve disputes quietly and privately.

Alternative dispute resolution (ADR)

Wherever possible, we want clients to resolve their disputes through methods of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). Such methods can be effective for bringing disputes to a close without the need to go through formal court proceedings. As well as saving time and costs, avoiding court means the dispute can be kept private.

ADR methods include informal negotiations, mediation and arbitration. All carry their own advantages depending on the circumstances of the case. We can recommend the right lawyers who can advise on the available options and provide advice about how to proceed.

You can expect skilled litigators and qualified higher court advocates with substantial experience representing clients at all court levels, including the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.
