We are well regarded by those working within the court system and have close ties to the legal community within the Thames Valley.

The type of work we undertake includes:

  • Commercial Litigation
  • Trading Disputes
  • Company and Director litigation
  • Partnership litigation
  • Property litigation
  • Landlord & Tenant litigation
  • Intellectual Property disputes
  • Shareholder litigation
  • Fraud related litigation
  • Insurance litigation
  • Mortgage possession cases

We have successfully dealt with disputes in County Court, High Court, Court of Appeal and House of Lords (now the Supreme Court).

 

We offer free initial advice, regardless of whether or not you later wish to instruct us to act for you.
