LANDLORD & TENANT
DISPUTES.
Disagreements invariably crop up in the course of business. There are some disagreements you resolve amicably with a conversation and compromise. But sometimes you’ll find yourself in a frustrating dispute that’s reached deadlock. Nobody agrees on a sensible way forward. The other side’s demands are unreasonable. Communication has broken down.
That’s when you need an objective analysis of the merits of your legal position, and a strategy for achieving an acceptable resolution.
We’ll navigate your dispute with decisive action that doesn’t spiral legal costs. We don’t spend time writing expensive wordy letters, when a phone call is more productive. And we don’t go to court, unless we really have to.

Straightforward
We explain your options, together with the potential risks and outcomes of each decision. That’s it. No fancy legalese.
Pragmatic
We don’t write a long waffly letters and we don’t write letters at all where a phone call works better. Being pragmatic means we resolve disputes quickly, without accumulating unnecessary costs.
Reasonable
We are assertive but not aggressive. We find our reasonable approach takes the heat out of the dispute, and helps us find a sensible resolution.
Considerate
We’re mindful of the impact that the dispute can have on you personally, and on your business. We’re also aware that our conduct can impact your relationship with the other side. We try to preserve relationships as best we can during the dispute resolution process.
