CONTRACT DISPUTES

Legal advice and representation for individuals and businesses involved in disputes arising from contracts, agreements and commercial obligations.

When should you seek legal advice?

You should consider obtaining legal advice as soon as a contractual dispute becomes significant, particularly where there is disagreement about performance, payment, termination, interpretation or another important obligation. Early advice can help clarify the legal position and reduce the risk of the dispute escalating.

What should you do now?

Keep the contract or agreement, all related correspondence and any records showing how the parties performed their obligations. Make a clear note of key dates, payments, notices and alleged breaches, and avoid making significant admissions or commitments before your legal position has been reviewed.
