Commercial contract disputes can have significant implications for businesses, which may require legal intervention. We offer expert case analysis and assessment services to give you an early steer on your legal position, tactics, costs and approach.

Jumping straight into a dispute and court process is fraught with risk. Our experienced analysis ensures that you are fully prepared to protect your business interests, with our fees starting from £750.00 plus VAT for an assessment.

Examples of Commercial Contract Disputes, and how early case analysis can help:- ·

  • Breach of Supply Agreement - a supplier fails to deliver goods within an agreed timeframe, which then causes production delays and financial losses for the buyer. Early case analysis can help determine whether “time is of the essence,” meaning that the timing of the delivery was of such importance to the parties that the fact delivery is late entitles the injured party to terminate the contract and claim damages.
  • Non-Performance of Service Contracts - a service provider does not fulfil their obligations as outlined in a contract, which leads to a breach of contract claim. Early case analysis can identify the key deliverables under the service contract, in order to work out if the non-delivery entitles the injured party to damages.
  • Misrepresentation - one party alleges that they were induced to enter into a contract by false statements made by another party. Therefore, they seek to void the contract and/or claim for damages. Early case analysis can identify any potential blockers to alleging misrepresentation (such as non-reliance or entire agreement clauses) and can help parties consider whether to seek the voiding of a contract or damages in circumstances where both options are not available.

I stay calm under pressure which is what you need in a dispute situation. I skilfully plot the path to the best outcome for my client. Sometimes that is by court action but usually we do not need to go that far as a settlement is found. I love that.
