Dispute Resolution

North Wales and Cheshire


Our Dispute Resolution Department has considerable experience gained over many years assisting clients to resolve a wide variety of disputes. We will advise you fully and in a straightforward manner, ensuring that you are aware of the progress and likely cost of your case throughout.  We will provide you with our advice at every appropriate stage, whilst ensuring that you retain control of your case throughout.

We act for both private and commercial clients and are experts in attaining the best solution to your dispute. We have extensive court experience and expertise in drafting the necessary pleadings and statements to set out your case in the most effective manner before the court.   We are also conscious of the advantage to our clients of the use of alternative methods of dispute resolution, such as mediation or arbitration.  Courts expect solicitors to promote these methods, and we do so effectively and seamlessly.  We would be happy to advise on such methods at all stages in proceedings and in order to ensure your case is dealt with as effectively as possible in terms of cost and time.
