Commercial disputes come in many forms - ranging from simple disputes over payment of a bill, to disputes over quality of goods and services provided, to complex breaches of contract, disputes between the owners of a business, and even fraud.

As business has, in recent years, become more sophisticated with ever-increasing regulation, the explosion of the internet, and globalisation, so has dispute resolution been changing.

Court proceedings can be long drawn out. They are invariably expensive, the outcome is uncertain and as a commercial proposition they are not often an attractive proposition. Gone are the days when: "I'm going to sue you - see you in Court" is an appropriate first option for aggrieved businesses and individuals.

Our approach at Winston Solicitors is to look at disputes intelligently and analytically. We advise and assist our clients according to what is best for their own particular circumstances. We have found that most disputes are capable of resolution without litigation that may well be the best outcome for your business.

However, resolution through negotiation is not always possible, and where necessary, we are comfortable pursuing claims vigorously for our client through the courts. Our team of experienced lawyers are happy to advise and represent on a full range of legal disputes, whether through negotiation, or through litigation in the County Court, the High Court, and the Employment Tribunal, whether individual or corporation, big or small.
