Commercial property litigation is a complex area of law and it is important that you seek expert legal advice and guidance as soon as possible when a dispute arises.
We advise on the full spectrum of disputes. Whether you are looking to commence a claim or defend a claim against you, we are confident that we can help you achieve your objectives. In many cases, it may be possible to settle without litigation – for example, through Alternative Dispute Resolution. However, when necessary our commercial property solicitors will litigate robustly in order to seek a satisfactory outcome.

We understand that commercial property disputes can cause significant disruption to a business. Litigation may not always the right approach, so we closely analyse the commercial needs of our business clients when advising on the best approach for seeking resolution in a dispute.
We also consider it a priority to resolve property-related disputes before costs spiral or become unmanageable. Although we strive to settle disputes with a minimum of cost, disruption and litigation, employing alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods whenever appropriate, we will undertake Court proceedings whenever necessary.
