I recently engaged the services of Alana Pointon to assist with a property settlement and custody agreement with my ex-partner. Going into the process, I had very limited knowledge, but Alana took the time to explain everything in clear, understandable terms, which made a huge difference for me.My ex-partner was extremely difficult to deal with, and there were times when additional legal advice and reassurance were urgently needed—particularly when he became threatening and made concerning comments about not returning my child. Alana handled these situations with calm professionalism, offering sound guidance and unwavering support.She was kind, considerate, and an absolute wealth of knowledge during one of the most stressful periods of my life. During mediation, Alana skillfully negotiated a very fair property settlement on my behalf. I truly felt that she had my best interests at heart at every stage.If you’re looking for a lawyer who is both compassionate and a fierce advocate, I can’t recommend Alana Pointon highly enough. You will not regret choosing her.

MASTERING THE ART OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Dispute resolution isn’t a one-size-fits-all process.

It involves various methods of dispute resolution depending on the specifics of your commercial dispute.

RCR Lawyers is skilled in negotiation, arbitration, and mediation.

These techniques can resolve issues without going to court.

RCR’s goal is to find alternative dispute resolution options to resolve conflicts outside the court.

However, if those methods are unsuccessful, we will assist you throughout the legal process.

NAVIGATING BREACH OF CONTRACT ISSUES

Parties not honouring contracts as agreed upon often lead to one of the most common types of commercial disputes.

These scenarios often involve claims of breach of contract.

A breach of contract dispute can be in writing, oral, partly in writing/oral and/or partly implied by conduct.

We strategise the most effective action to take. We first assess the strength of your case. If your prospects are strong we will advise you to run your case. If your prospects are weak, we will advise and assist you to settle in the most cost efficient manner.
