Disputes in the commercial environment are inevitable regardless of how well run a business is. We have helped many high-profile companies resolve complex claims, saving them, or recovering for them, substantial sums.
What we do
Although the scope for dispute is unlimited, there are techniques and legal principles that a team like ours can use to great effect. We can also draw on specialist legal skills from elsewhere in the firm. The areas of dispute we most commonly encounter are those relating to:
- Commercial agreements
- Partnerships
- Boardroom and shareholder issues
- Intellectual property
- Employment
- Claims against company directors
- International arbitration
- Professional negligence
- Insurance policies
- Fraud or dishonesty
- Warranties on the sale of businesses or goods
