Yes. Many disputes are settled through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation. Going to court is usually a last resort, and our team will always explore ways to resolve your case quickly and cost-effectively.
While it’s not always required, having a specialist solicitor can help protect your interests and avoid costly mistakes. At CEL Solicitors, we aim to resolve matters efficiently – often without going to court – but we’re fully prepared to take legal action if needed.
This depends on the type of dispute. In many cases, you have up to six years from when the issue arose. However, strict time limits do apply, so it’s always best to seek legal advice as early as possible.
Costs can vary depending on the complexity of the case. We’ll always be upfront and transparent about likely costs and funding options. While not all commercial litigation claims qualify for no-win, no-fee, we’ll explore all available routes with you.
