How can we help?

Litigation

Professional Negligence Solicitors

 

Claims against professionals involve a number of challenges, including the need to show that the Defendant has fallen below the standards of his/her profession, which invariably requires expert evidence. In reality, claims are not defended by the professionals themselves but their insurers, who will use all available steps to minimise their liability. We regularly act in such disputes.

We have experience of claims involving other lawyers, accountants, architects, surveyors, engineers and other professions.

Advantages of arbitration over litigation

Arbitration is a method of resolving disputes outside the court system, with the dispute being determined by an independent arbitrator or tribunal rather than a judge. Whether a dispute is best resolved through arbitration or litigation will ultimately depend on the particular facts and circumstances of the case.
