Our Approach to Dispute Resolution
Disputes differ in their legal and commercial implications. We begin by examining the underlying relationship, relevant facts, and supporting documentation to identify the issues in dispute and assess the available legal and procedural options.
Our advice takes account of the nature of the dispute, contractual obligations, potential time and costs, and the implications of each available course of action.
Arbitration, litigation, and negotiated settlement are not interchangeable solutions. The appropriate approach depends on the circumstances of each matter.
