HOW TO RESOLVE A COMMERCIAL DISPUTE
What is a Letter of Demand?
This step is the first we usually take on your behalf after you confirm with us how the dispute got to the stage it is at.
A letter from a lawyer holds much more weight with the receiver because solicitors won’t issue a letter without first exercising professional judgement and cannot issue statements they have not first verified and have evidence to support.
There must be a reasonable legal cause of action behind it which makes it more serious than those from a business or individual.
The chances of having the opposing party reach out to negotiate increases dramatically by taking this step and also sets up the ability to begin legal proceedings in Court.

Going to court
This step will be a higher cost than issuing a letter of demand, however you are able to recover the costs incurred and interest applicable upon receiving a positive outcome.
Depending on the dispute, it is a worthwhile investment to make.
Enforcing your rights in business is the only way to ensure your hard work, reputation and experience is respected and not tarnished.
After we have issued a letter to the opposing party on your behalf and if we have not received any signs of an intention to resolve the dispute, we are able to file a Claim and Statement of Claim in Court.
