FAQs

What is the difference between dispute resolution and litigation?

Dispute resolution refers to the process of resolving conflicts outside of court through methods like mediation, negotiation, and arbitration. Litigation, on the other hand, involves resolving disputes through a court trial, with a judge or jury making the final decision.

We believe in exploring alternative dispute resolution methods before resorting to litigation. Our team is well-versed in negotiation and mediation techniques, which can often lead to quicker and more cost-effective resolutions. 

What are the benefits of mediation in resolving disputes?

Mediation is a dispute resolution method that promotes open communication, allowing parties to express their concerns and needs. It is confidential, cost-effective, and provides more control over the outcome since parties participate in the decision-making process.

What types of disputes can be resolved through negotiation?

Negotiation is a flexible method applicable to various disputes, including contract disputes, employment issues, business conflicts, and personal injury claims.

Can businesses use dispute resolution methods to resolve commercial conflicts?

Yes, businesses can utilise dispute resolution methods to address contract disputes and various other commercial conflicts. These methods cover a wide range of disputes, including purchase/sale disputes, building disputes, commercial leases, and disagreements related to partnerships, corporations, and trusts. Additionally, contract disputes often involve debt recovery, which is a crucial aspect of resolving commercial conflicts.
