Litigation should be the last resort, not the first. When it is the right answer, we run cases focused on the commercial outcome — not on running up costs.
Most cases settle. We use without-prejudice correspondence, round-table meetings, mediation and (where appropriate) early neutral evaluation to bring disputes to a sensible end without the cost of trial.
Litigation costs depend heavily on what the other side does. We give a clear written estimate at each stage and review it after every key event (defence, disclosure, witness statements, mediation). We will discuss conditional fee, after-the-event insurance and litigation funding options where appropriate.
From issue to trial, a defended commercial claim typically takes 12–24 months. Smaller claims under the Small Claims Track can be resolved more quickly. Many cases settle well before trial.
