We specialise in navigating the complexities of commercial and contract disputes, representing clients in diverse settings such as court proceedings, arbitrations, adjudications, and mediations. Our focus is on commercial disputes involving contracts, property, companies, construction, and contested insurance claims. We diligently pursue and defend claims across all commercial arenas, providing essential advice and representation to recover payments under commercial agreements. Our services extend to supporting builders, architects, engineers, contractors, and subcontractors in disputes and adjudications under the Security of Payment Act (SOPA).

Our team is adept at both contested and uncontested court appearances, participating in mentions, directions hearings, call-overs, and returns of subpoena. We provide ancillary services during hearings, trials, arbitrations, and mediations, managing communication with opposing legal representatives, assisting counsel, and preparing witnesses for court appearances. We handle the preparation and production of documents, order transcripts, and inspect produced documents at hearings, ensuring seamless proceedings. Additionally, we advise businesses on enhancing their commercial contracts and practices, particularly within the construction and property development sectors, ensuring adherence to SOPA requirements. Our extensive experience in drafting and reviewing insurance policies lends itself to effectively assisting clients with complex insurance claims.
