Business Disputes

Business disputes can arise at any stage of a commercial relationship and, if left unresolved, can seriously impact operations and profitability.

We advise business owners, directors, shareholders, and partners on disputes involving:

  • Breach of commercial agreements
  • Management and operational disagreements
  • Profit distribution and ownership issues

Where appropriate, we aim to resolve disputes through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution (ADR). If litigation becomes unavoidable, we provide decisive representation to protect your commercial position.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do all disputes have to go to court?

No. Many disputes are resolved without court proceedings through negotiation, mediation, or other forms of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). At LFCS, we always assess whether an early settlement is possible and in your best interests before recommending litigation.

When should I speak to a litigation solicitor?

You should seek legal advice as soon as a dispute arises or if you receive legal correspondence threatening court action. Early advice can help protect your position, reduce risk, and often prevent disputes from escalating.

How long does litigation take?

The duration of litigation depends on the complexity of the case, the value of the claim, and whether the matter settles early. Some disputes may be resolved within a few months, while others can take a year or longer if they proceed to trial.

How much does litigation cost?

Litigation costs vary depending on the nature of the dispute and the level of work required. We provide clear and transparent advice on costs from the outset and keep you informed as your case progresses. In some cases, costs may be recoverable from the other party.

What types of disputes do you handle?

Our litigation team advises on a wide range of disputes, including:

  • Business and commercial disputes
  • Contractual disputes
  • Partnership and shareholder disputes
  • Property litigation
  • Debt and financing disputes
  • General civil litigation

If your matter is not listed, we are happy to advise on whether we can assist.

Can you help with business disputes between partners or shareholders?

Yes. We regularly assist business owners, partners, and shareholders with disputes involving management decisions, profit distribution, breaches of agreements, and fiduciary duties. Our focus is on protecting your commercial interests and finding practical solutions.

What is property litigation?

Property litigation covers disputes relating to property ownership, leases, boundaries, rights of way, rent arrears, and landlord-tenant issues. These disputes can involve residential or commercial property and often require specialist legal advice.

Do you offer mediation or alternative dispute resolution?

Yes. We actively encourage alternative dispute resolution where appropriate, including mediation and negotiation. ADR can often resolve disputes more quickly and cost-effectively than court proceedings.
