Dealing with a dispute, be it small or large, can be a particularly stressful experience, especially if you are unsure about the costs and procedures involved. Our Litigation Team regularly handles a wide range of disputes, and we can provide practical and specialist advice with the aim of resolving your dispute quickly and cost-effectively.
We have helped with the following situations:
- Claims relating to contested wills and estates including inheritance claims
- Issues between you and your landlord
- Conflicts with retailers, suppliers or service providers
- Problems with contracts
- Professional negligence
- Boundary and property disagreements
Wherever possible, we always seek to settle disputes by negotiation. In many cases, disputes can be resolved by using alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods such as mediation and arbitration. These procedures tend to be more informal and less adversarial, as well as less costly, than going to Court. Our Litigation Team will work with you to reach a mutually satisfactory outcome to both parties.
There are occasions however, when court action is necessary. Rest assured that our Litigation Team will provide a robust and efficient presentation of your case in order to gain the best possible result. We are one of the few legal practices in East Sussex to have a partner who is qualified to appear as an Advocate in the higher civil courts and who has over 20 years experience of court advocacy.
We aim to provide a high quality service and will deal with your matter in a friendly and professional manner. We also work hard to ensure that there is regular communication to ensure you are kept informed about the progress of your case.
