We specialise in high value, complex work assisting UK and international clients.
Every dispute is different and needs to be handled as such. Disputes can also be emotive, sometimes highly so. We work closely with our clients as trusted advisors to help them find practical, robust solutions which achieve their aims.
Our approach is to make every effort to resolve issues without the expense and publicity of going to court. We are expert negotiators experienced in mediation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution.
When going to court is unavoidable we identify and apply the strategies that see claims resolved as swiftly as possible. We work collaboratively as a team with the very best barristers and litigation support professionals, including litigation funders.
As one of the largest private wealth teams in the UK we are able to deliver a seamless dispute management service across all key private wealth advisory areas.
