Civil disputes can arise unexpectedly, or they may develop from a specific incident that leads to disagreements between individuals or between individuals and organisations. Our Manchester litigation lawyers have extensive experience in a wide range of civil litigation matters and we are here to serve as your civil dispute resolution solicitor.
We offer assistance in various areas, including:
- Property, land, and boundary disputes
- Employment disputes, including unfair dismissals
- Wills, probate, and trust disputes
- Landlord/tenant and housing disputes
- Neighbour disputes
- Contractual disputes
- Professional negligence disputes (e.g., unsatisfactory work by surveyors, builders, or other professionals)
- Monetary disputes
- Character defamation disputes
While litigation is one option for resolving civil disputes, we typically recommend pursuing Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods first, rather than involving the court. ADR encompasses several approaches to settle disagreements outside of court, such as mediation, negotiation, arbitration, and conciliation.
Should ADR methods fail, our Manchester litigation team will collaborate with you to initiate a civil claim in court, aiming to resolve the dispute as discreetly and smoothly as possible. It’s important to note that litigation can be a prolonged and intricate process, but many cases do not proceed to trial and are settled beforehand.
