Litigation and dispute resolution
Thorough preparation, honest assessment and determined advocacy. When a matter should be settled we say so; when it should be fought, we fight it.
Overview
Disputes are a reality of commercial and personal life. When they arise, the quality of legal representation determines whether rights are protected, losses are recovered, and reputations are preserved.
Our litigation practice is built on thorough preparation, honest assessment, and determined advocacy. We do not overstate the strength of a case to win an instruction, and we do not pursue strategies that serve the advocate's interests more than the client's. When a matter should be settled, we say so. When it should be fought, we fight it with everything we have.
We appear regularly before the High Court, the Court of Appeal, magistrates' courts, the Employment and Labour Relations Court, the Sports Disputes Tribunal, and arbitral tribunals.
What we do
7 service lines. Choose one to see what it covers.
Civil Litigation
Commercial disputes, contractual claims, tortious liability, land and property matters, succession and probate, judicial review. We handle matters from pre-action through trial, enforcement, and appeal, including injunctive relief, summary judgment, stay of execution, and garnishee orders.
Most matters cross two or three of these
Describe the situation in your own words. We will tell you what it involves, which services it touches and what it will cost, before you commit to anything.
Why clients instruct us for disputes
We appear wherever your dispute is heard
Superior and subordinate courts, the Kadhis’ courts, specialist and quasi-judicial tribunals, registrars such as KIPI, and arbitration, mediation and other alternative forums.
Forum strategy before filing
The first decision in most disputes is where to bring it. We advise on that before drafting, not after.
Success-linked options within the rules
Where a matter has a measurable outcome we can agree a base fee plus a defined success element under paragraph 41 of the ARO. We never act on outcome alone.
Litigation informed by the commercial file
Our disputes team works alongside the corporate practice, so the contract that created the dispute is read by people who draft them.
