Dispute resolution

A dispute can come in all shapes and sizes. It’s impossible to list them all but here are a few examples:

• A company suing a private person for not paying an invoice;
• Neighbours who fall out over a right of way;
• Two companies disputing the terms of a contract or other agreement.

A “dispute” therefore is two or more parties who cannot agree on something. This is where a dispute resolution solicitor comes in. A dispute can be resolved in a number of ways; the most common ways are:

• Litigation (i.e. going to court);
• Mediation;
• Arbitration;
• Adjudication; or
• Other settlement negotiations (often between lawyers trying to hammer out a deal by letters, meetings or telephone).
