Court proceedings are sometimes unavoidable. Our lawyers’ experience and understanding of the court processes enable us to advise our clients on strategies to deliver optimal outcomes. Litigation can be costly and time consuming and often does not deliver the optimal desired outcome; as such we constantly review strategy and think outside the box for a resolution, whether it be through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution or litigation.
We act for individuals and large and small organisations in a wide range of disputes and industries. Disputes can be highly disruptive and divert valuable time and resources from your core activities; at the outset of any matter, we provide a thorough assessment of your position and a recommend a strategy or options to minimise your risks and provide a cost effective, timely and commercially acceptable resolution of your dispute. Throughout a dispute, we work with our clients to manage legal costs and the impact of the dispute on them and their businesses.
Our goal is to get to the core issues of the dispute fast and achieve a commercial outcome quickly and cost effectively.
