Dispute Resolution

Commercial dispute resolution and recovery of claims

What can still be recovered, and is it worth the cost? When a commercial relationship breaks, the useful question is the forum, the paper trail, and whether a claim is worth bringing.

Who this is for

Businesses and individuals who are owed money, have been cut out of a deal, or have received a letter that needs a careful reply. Partners who can no longer work together. Clients who have already spent months on correspondence and want a second view of whether to escalate.

If the other side has disappeared, or the only remaining “help” is another payment to a platform, that file may belong with Recovery Services instead.

What we do

We read the contract and the correspondence, identify who can still be named, and advise on negotiation, a formal letter, or proceedings in a forum that can actually do something.

  • A written view of the claim, the weaknesses, and the likely cost of the next step
  • Letters before action and settlement correspondence
  • Proceedings or arbitration where the paper and the counterpart justify it
  • A recommendation to stop if the trail is too thin

We will not start a file we cannot move. A polite letter that cannot be enforced is still a cost.

01

Papers

You send the contract, the messages, and a short account of what went wrong.

02

View

We say whether there is a claim worth taking and in which place it would sit.

03

Letter

If you instruct us, we write to the other side in terms you have approved.

04

Next step

Negotiate, issue, or stop. You decide after you have seen the cost of each path.

Questions we are asked

No. Many files should end with a letter or a negotiated exit. We say so when a claim would cost more than it is likely to return.

Often yes, if they can still be identified and a forum can reach them. We will tell you if the useful work has to happen elsewhere.

A first view of a short file is usually measured in days. Send the letter and the contract it refers to.
