Litigation & Dispute Resolution

We give you a clear path through complex disputes

We handle commercial disputes, property conflicts, employment matters, and estate litigation. Whether through settlement negotiations or court proceedings, we focus on practical outcomes that serve your interests.

Our Litigation & Dispute Resolution team represents clients in all courts and tribunals up to the High Court of Australia. We pursue resolution through alternative dispute resolution where possible, and litigate when necessary. Our approach is always focused on achieving the best outcome for your situation.

Commercial & Business Disputes

Commercial disputes disrupt operations and damage relationships. The longer they run, the more they cost in time, money, and business focus. We represent businesses in disputes ranging from contract breaches and construction defects to partnership breakdowns. We assess your position, advise on realistic prospects, and pursue the fastest effective path to resolution.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

Many disputes resolve faster and more cost-effectively outside court, through mediation, conciliation, or arbitration. These processes are less formal, more confidential, and give parties greater control over outcomes. We represent clients across all forms of alternative dispute resolution, helping you choose the right process, prepare your case, and pursue settlement terms that protect your interests.

Property & Estate Disputes

Property disputes can involve lease conflicts, boundary issues, or ownership claims, while estate disputes often arise over wills and family provision claims. We handle leasing disputes, property conflicts, and estate litigation across both areas. For family provision matters, we act for executors defending estates and for family members pursuing entitlements when wills are challenged.

Court Representation

Some disputes require court proceedings to achieve resolution or protect your rights. When litigation is necessary, you need experienced advocates who understand court processes and strategic litigation. We represent clients across ACT and NSW courts and tribunals, handling matters from initial filing through to trial and appeal, with frank advice about risks, costs, and outcomes.
