Civil Litigation

Civil Litigation is often described as “dispute resolution”. Defined simply, It is a legal process which does not involve criminal charges. Civil disputes can either be settled by negotiation or via the Court system. In many but not all cases, a financial settlement is sought by one party or another. Alternatively, the dispute could be resolved by one party committing to take a specific form of action.

We can help you with a range of dispute types, including but not limited to:

• Monies owed to you or being claimed from you.
• Faulty goods.
• A dispute over property ownership boundaries or rights of way.
• Challenging a will or inheritance.
• Court proceedings issued against you.

We assess every potential case on its merits and will discuss with you any available course of action. Civil cases can be settled at any stage prior to or during legal proceedings, and where appropriate we can guide you through the process of negotiation or mediation, which can sometimes resolve disputes to the satisfaction of both parties without involving the courts.

We understand that bringing or defending legal proceedings can be a stressful process, and whichever route we agree to take, we will take care of proceedings from start to finish.
