How we take an instruction
We begin with a legal assessment of the facts, the documents and the available forums. A well-prepared pre-litigation strategy — demand letters, notices of breach, settlement proposals — can sometimes resolve a dispute without the cost and delay of court proceedings.
Where proceedings are necessary, we prepare pleadings and interlocutory applications with attention to procedural and substantive requirements, and we keep you informed through hearing, judgment and enforcement.
