When your business interests are threatened you will need the extensive litigation experience that Goddard Smith Solicitors offer, allowing you to move  quickly and decisively. Our commercial litigation lawyer can provide you with commercial advice and if we believe that taking court action is the best commercial decision we will suggest that option. Our approach to resolving disputes is both practical and commercial – if court action can be justified in financial terms, we will act to secure a real advantage.

Our aim is to avoid exposing you to expensive and time consuming litigation, the outcome of which is often uncertain. We will work to achieve this by providing careful consideration to the preparation of your commercial agreements and, secondly when disputes do arise, we will explore the opportunities for settlement with whichever method suits your needs.

At Goddard Smith Solicitors we recognise that disputes can be resolved in different ways including: negotiation, mediation, arbitration, adjudication or litigation.

Whether you are the claimant or defendant, we have the resources to manage simple or complex disputes, and the experience to provide a realistic assessment of the risks and implications for your business on the following matters:

·         debt recovery

·         customer/supplier disputes

·         agent/distributor disputes

·         building disputes

·         disputes on terms and conditions along with misrepresentation

·         property (including landlord and tenant)

·         professional negligence

With all of these matters we will work with you to provide a prompt, efficient and commercial service. We appreciate that cash flow is important and if we can reach an early settlement that is in your favour we will look to do so.
