Litigation can be time-consuming and expensive and is often the result of parties not fully understanding the complex process, their rights and the risks involved and therefore, not in a position to make the most informed decision. Litigation can either come to a swift end through alternative dispute resolution or can be lengthy to resolve in court, with an average of a minimum of 12 months or even longer in more complex matters.
In some cases, the pathway chosen may not be the most desired but may be one that is most commercially wise for you. Here at Kingsford Lawyers, we provide comprehensive and honest advice regarding your options and pathways so that you are well informed and equipped to decide which achieves the best overall outcome.
Kingsford Lawyers are highly skilled in many areas of litigation which include:
Often before litigation proceedings, there are alternative dispute resolution processes available to the parties involved, such as contracts that mandate the parties to take part in such alternatives before commencing court action, or if no contract outlines a compulsory dispute resolution process the parties may consider taking part in private negotiations or private mediations and include the services of an arbitrator or litigation lawyer.
Once litigation is commenced the court will on most occasions, order that the involved parties take part in a court-based mediation, this will generally occur after discovery and will take place before a Registrar or a Judge.
We are able to advise on the relevant legislation requirements related to your dispute and the dispute resolution process options that are available to you. If the dispute proceeds to court litigation, we are experienced and skilled in representing our clients in court in all jurisdictions across Australia.
It is wise to engage a lawyer to assist you and provide your options at an early stage, as soon as a dispute arises as this will most likely assist in resolving your dispute without the need for litigation or in the alternative, should the dispute proceed to court litigation, your matter is well prepared for court.
