What this usually involves

Most contract disputes settle. The value of early advice is in preserving evidence, protecting your position under the contract and choosing the leverage point that ends the dispute quickest.

  • Assessing breach, causation and recoverable loss
  • Pre-action correspondence and mediation
  • Court proceedings where settlement fails

Common questions

How long do I have to bring a claim?
Six years from the breach for most simple contracts, or twelve for deeds.
Will I recover my legal costs?
A successful party usually recovers a proportion of costs, rarely all of them.
