This area of Law revolves around the resolution of disputes. The disputes can be between individuals, families or commercial organisations.

Vijay and Shalish work as an efficient, methodical team, gathering evidence early, analysing the issues involved and advising on the cost effective way of resolving the dispute.

The Civil procedure rules allow an opportunity for resolving disputes without going to court.

If court proceedings have to be issued Vijay and Shalish competently and systematically deal with the considerable paper work and procedural issues within the dispute resolution process to bring the case to trial whilst always looking for ways to strengthen the case both evidentially and tactically as well as negotiating, thinking laterally to explore avenues to resolve the case; narrow the issues or avoid a costly trial.
