Dispute Resolution & Mediation Services

Disputes regularly arise in commercial, professional and personal relationships.

If not managed properly, they can develop into lengthy and stressful court cases. Our team is experienced in all areas of dispute resolution and can assess disputes at the outset to identify the most suitable solution for you going forward.

We are experts at navigating complex situations, reducing stress, and striving for the results you want, both in and out of the court room.

Disputes can be, and often are, highly delicate and stressful for those involved. It is vital to use a solicitor that you can trust to work diligently on your behalf to provide the best outcome possible and provide you with the support that you need.

Our specialist team is led by Alex Williams, Director and member of the Professional Negligence Lawyers Association. The Dispute Resolution team have an outstanding reputation in Sussex and beyond for using their legal prowess and human understanding to achieve results for our clients.

Alex Williams

Alex works in professional negligence, contentious probate, and court of protection litigation. He also has a particular specialism in negligence claims in the financial services sector, including cases against financial advisers and pension providers relating to negligent mis-selling and mismanagement of both pensions and investments.

I had the pleasure of working with Alex and Daisy on a situation that required their expertise in litigation. Their professionalism, advice and guidance was fantastic all the way through the litigation process (which was personally difficult and sensitive for me) until we achieved my desired outcome. The whole experience was made as easy as possible for me due to Alex's and Daisy's empathy and understanding, alongside their legal rigour. I'm very grateful to have worked with Alex and Daisy and recommend their services.
Disputes and Claims Services

How our Dispute Resolution solicitors can help

We specialise in the following departments:

Our Litigation Services

Disputes appear in many areas of life. They can relate to your family, home, workplace, or professional services. Our litigation solicitors can help with both civil and commercial disputes.

Disputing a Will

Going through the probate process after a family member or friend has died is never easy. The situation can be made much worse if you feel you weren’t left what you felt you deserved in the Will, or that the person who died made the Will under undue influence.

Professional Negligence Claims

Sometimes professionals that you rely on make mistakes that have a negative impact on you and your affairs. This can be classed as professional negligence.

If you have been let down by a professional such as an architect, accountant, lawyer or other advisor, we may be able to help you claim compensation for your loss.

Making a claim for Mis-selling

Many people trust a financial advisor to give professional advice about their savings. Whether you are planning for retirement, investing for your business or just need somewhere safe for your money, it is important that the professional you put your trust in treats your money with care and attention. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case.
