Get StartedA contract dispute arises when two or more parties involved in a legally binding agreement disagree over the contract terms, conditions, or performance. These disputes can occur in various contexts, such as business transactions, employment agreements, real estate deals, etc. When a breach of contract occurs – meaning one party fails to perform their obligations as outlined in the written contract – it can lead to financial losses, damaged business relationships, and potential legal action.

Conflicts can arise from ambiguous or unclear terms within a legally binding agreement. These disputes may involve the interpretation of specific clauses or the enforcement of the terms of a contract.

Conflicts related to property transactions, such as breaches of sale agreements, disputes over the terms of the contract, or disagreements over lease agreements.
Disagreements between businesses over the delivery of goods or services, often involving delayed shipments, substandard products, or other breaches of the terms and conditions outlined in the contract.

We aim to resolve disputes in a way that not only addresses immediate concerns but also protects your long-term interests.
A neutral arbitrator hears both sides and makes a binding decision. This process is less formal than court but is structured to resolve complex disputes effectively.
If negotiation fails, mediation involves a neutral third party who helps both sides find a mutually agreeable solution. It is generally faster and more cost-effective than court proceedings, helping preserve business relationships.
When other methods are unsuccessful, litigation may be necessary. We will guide and support you throughout the legal process and ensure you have the best representation in court.

Sometimes, yes — but it depends on the severity of the breach and what the contract says. We can advise you on whether this is the right step.
Yes — many cases are settled through negotiation, mediation or arbitration, avoiding the stress and cost of court proceedings.
If the other party broke the terms of the contract and it caused you harm, you may have a claim. A solicitor can help you assess your position and next steps.
In most cases, you have up to six years from the date of the breach to bring a claim under the Limitation Act 1980. But it’s best to get legal advice as soon as possible.
Costs can vary depending on how complex your case is and which method you use. We’ll explain any costs clearly before you decide how to proceed.
You might be entitled to compensation, a change to the contract, or for the other party to carry out their part of the deal. We’ll help you work towards the best possible result.
Clarity is key. Good contracts set out what each party must do, when, how payments work, and what happens if things go wrong.
Gather any evidence — emails, invoices, the contract itself — and speak to a solicitor as soon as possible. We can help you understand your rights and options.
Mediation helps both sides find a solution with a third party’s help. Arbitration is more formal — the arbitrator listens to both sides and makes a binding decision.
