Overview of Dispute Resoluton

Let’s face it, disputes are never pleasant, and the key is to get them resolved as quickly and effectively as possible. We know that when they do crop up our clients are looking for a frank assessment of the merits of their position, the options available to them and advice on what is the best way to proceed. 

Our four partner Dispute Resolution team is direct, pragmatic and straightforward in helping our clients. We ensure that our clients can be confident that they are getting the best possible advice and they can rely on us to work with them to get the best possible outcome.

Within the team we have considerable expertise over a wide range of sectors including commercial contracts, sale and supply of goods and services, manufacturing and supply agreements, international trade, property issues, insolvency, intellectual property, construction and professional negligence.

We recognise that costs are always one of the biggest causes of anxiety so we provide a range of funding options from hourly rates, capped and fixed fees to conditional fee arrangements and after the event insurance. Our advice is based on the available options, and the cost benefits/risks of each option to allow you to make a clearly informed decision.

Geoffrey Leaver encourage the use of alternative forms of dispute resolution such as mediation and we are regularly involved in court proceedings, emergency applications for injunctive relief, arbitration and adjudication.
