Commercial Disputes
Commercial disputes we can assist with
We assist with disputes involving commercial contracts, unpaid invoices, business sale agreements, shareholder and partnership issues, leasing disputes, misleading conduct, supply arrangements and enforcement of judgments or cost orders.
Where appropriate, we explore alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as negotiation, mediation and arbitration. These pathways may help parties resolve a dispute before it escalates into court proceedings.
Our commercial litigation services include advice on potential claims, responding to demands, commencing proceedings, representation before courts or tribunals, settlement negotiations and enforcement action.
We also help clients identify dispute risk in related business documents, including commercial contracts, shareholder agreements and business sale agreements.
