Our specialist contract dispute solicitors use their considerable experience and commercial knowledge to resolve contractual disputes in a wide variety of circumstances.
Businesses enter into contracts on a daily basis, so it is not surprising that they can find themselves in a dispute with other parties regarding those contracts for a number of reasons.
Contract disputes occur for a variety of reasons. One party may breach the contract causing financial loss or damage. For example, not complying with a timescales set in a contract, not making payment when due or not living up to product or service assurances.
There are circumstances when a contract can be rescinded (effectively torn up to put the parties back in the position they were in before entering into the contract) and circumstances where damages for loss can be claimed whilst the contract continues. Compliance with contractual responsibilities can also be enforced if this is more desirable.
Sometimes one party does not understand the terms of the contract, or there can be a disagreement as to interpretation of various terms in the contract or about whose terms of business the contract is based on. Sometimes the contract is not even in writing.
Our contract dispute solicitors can provide you with expert commercial advice about what to do if you find yourself in a dispute; understanding the contract terms, analysing the strengths and the weaknesses of your case and explaining what your options are for resolution.
