Our litigation & disputes services
Here you can find information on types of disputes we regularly deal with, as well as how we can help you, what your funding options are and what you can do next.
To protect consumers, all UK businesses must comply with the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Failure to do so could result in a costly legal dispute.
Disputes over the terms and conditions in your contracts can be an expensive, time consuming and stressful diversion from running your business.
Commercial and Consumer contracts are an everyday part of running a business and serve a vital function in ensuring that aspects of your business are legally effective. Poorly drafted agreements could have serious implications on your cash flow, your liability in the event of a breach of contract, and reputation.
The reputation you have built for your business can be damaged in a short space of time by defamatory comments. If your business needs to act over libel or slander, or defend a claim against it, we can help.
Failure to correctly protect your commercial ideas, products, processes or even company name could mean losing your advantage to competitors.
If you buy or sell goods and services, there are a number of legal considerations that you need to be aware of. Without this knowledge, disagreements can quickly escalate which could threaten your business.
You need to know that your accountant can be relied on. Mistakes or negligence on their part can have profound consequences for your business.
How much will it cost?
Legal Expenses Insurance (LEI)
If you have a commercial insurance policy which includes Legal Expenses Insurance (LEI) cover, your legal costs may be covered by your policy (subject to the terms and conditions of the policy). If you are unsure if your insurance policy includes LEI cover, we will check this with you.
Self-funding?
Unfortunately, we are unable to take on private instructions at the moment and can only work with customers who have legal expenses insurance.
What should I do next?
If you have legal expenses insurance with ARAG/DAS, please call us on the number listed in your policy. Alternatively, policyholders can request legal advice on a litigation and dispute matter here.
