Dispute Resolution

Mundays has a team of experienced and proactive lawyers who specialise in advising on the resolution and avoidance of disputes. We act for a wide range of clients, including companies of all sizes, overseas businesses, professional partnerships and private individuals.

Our philosophy

Our aim is to bring to all matters an over-riding concern to assist our clients in identifying appropriate and realistic outcomes and then working with them towards achieving them. Our lawyers bring to this process in-depth knowledge of law and procedure, coupled with a keen commercial awareness.

This philosophy is also reflected in our willingness to advise clients and help them to avoid disputes in relation to situations which might otherwise lead to litigation. To this end, we are always willing to conduct risk analysis on behalf of clients.

Alternatives to litigation

These days, court proceedings are often seen as a last resort; indeed most court procedures discourage the parties from using litigation when alternative means of resolving disputes are available. Therefore, we will always consider all options, including negotiation, arbitration, mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). Having said that, our lawyers are experienced in dealing with all stages of litigation through to trials and appeals, always remaining mindful of the need to control costs.

Costs

Our approach reflects the concerns which all clients have with regard to minimising costs by working as closely as possible to agreed budgets. We encourage clients to address carefully the goals which they seek to achieve and to consider the potential benefit to them against the cost (in time and emotion as well as money) which their dispute might generate.

We always aim to provide good value for money and for appropriate cases, we are willing to consider alternative forms of funding. We do not offer legal aid for civil disputes.
