Introduction
   Litigation/ADR


Commercial disputes are part and parcel of the commercial landscape.We work closely with our clients to resolve these disputes in a focused, timely and cost effective manner. We take the time to ensure that the management of the dispute is within the framework of our client's commercial objectives.

Our team manages commercial disputes in the Federal, Supreme, District and Local Courts, the Land & Environment Court and all Industry specific tribunals.

Litigation is a costly and time wasting exercise for our clients but unfortunately,as part of a cocmmercial process it is sometimes unavoidable. Where appropriate, we advocate for the usew of Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) preocedures which include mediation and arbitration, as an alternative to court based litigation. We have obtained many acceptable outcomes for clients through mediation proceedings over many years. We have experience in running substantial cases for clients including: - shareholder disputes - debt recovery and enforcement of securities - distribution agreement variations - supply agreement termination - building disputes - partnership termination - trade mark infringements - employment law and/or contractor issues - insolvency and retention of title matters

Strategic, pragmatic and cost effective are the hallmarks of our litigation services. We pride ourselves on our repeat client instructions based on our "no-nonsense" style of resolving disputes and our keen focus on outcomes, not processes, that are commercially sensible and achievable.
