"Most people know that a court case can be expensive, time-consuming and stressful. What isn't so well known is that litigation isn't the only option."

Matthew Bailey, Partner


If you are facing a dispute, our role is to resolve that situation as quickly and inexpensively as possible and to the best outcome for you. Therefore, despite our exceptional court success rate, having your best interests in mind means we won't recommend litigation as a matter of course.

Whatever you're facing, there are alternative means of resolving disputes that can often be quicker and more effective - mediation being one of the preferred options. Courts also realise this and sometimes even impose penalties on those who refuse to mediate without good reason.

Churchers benefits from having several trained and accredited mediators in our ranks. We will prepare the right case for negotiating a resolution and ensure that procedures are put in place to keep the agreements watertight.

Sometimes court litigation is the only option. In these situations, we have the expertise to progress your claim all the way through the courts. If required, we can also call on our close associations with a network of experts. These include surveyors, expert witnesses, forensic accountants and specialist barristers. In all cases, you can rest assured that we will fight your case tenaciously and keep you informed of developments - particularly with regard to cost.

To learn more about our service or to discuss a particular situation, please contact one of our experts by telephone or email.
