Commercial litigation refers to disputes between businesses, or two or more parties within a business itself. Often these matters can be complicated and expensive to solve, therefore it is in the parties’ best interests to ensure the issue is dealt with in the most efficient and effective way possible. The most common commercial disputes relate to a disagreement over money or property as part of a business transaction. Commercial litigation cases usually occur within high-functioning companies or other entities such as partnerships or trusts that have high profits and shareholders or stakeholders that need to be kept happy. For this reason, commercial litigation should be dealt with by trusted experts, such as those at McNab McNab & Starke.
Commercial Litigation Services
McNab McNab & Starke offers expert services in a number of different legal commercial matters. Some of the most common issues that we deal with include:
Contract Disputes
These disputes most commonly arise when one party has not fulfilled its obligations that are included in a contract. It can be between an employee and their employer, or between two or more different businesses.
Insolvency Disputes
This deals with the issue of whether an individual or company should fall into insolvency, essentially closing their business, and dealing with the consequences of this matter.
Partnership Disputes
This covers a variety of issues that can occur between two or more parties within a business. Partnership disputes deal with disagreements that arise between business partners and work to resolve them in such a way that is most beneficial for the client and for the business.
Property and Leasing Disputes
The ownership or lease agreements in respect to property owned by a company, can often lead to disputes that need to be dealt with by business dispute lawyers.
Getting Involved in Commercial Litigation
The prospect of facing lengthy and drawn-out court proceedings can be a daunting one, especially when it comes to commercial and business litigation. The process of engaging with commercial or corporate litigation usually starts with the parties in dispute engaging in preliminary negotiations to put all the issues on the table, and for the parties to come to some sort of agreement, and settle the issues outside of court.
If the issue cannot be dealt with outside of court, then the legal litigation process will begin. In cases such as this, it is vital that both parties seek the best legal counsel possible to put their case forward before the Court.
