Litigation & Disputes
Being confronted with a court related dispute can be a highly stressful experience – even if the matter may be a small claim. This is because there is always the risk that it may escalate into a lengthy and expensive dispute. In addition to being costly, disputes can have an impact on a person’s mental and physical health.
Basic principles of litigation and disputes law
Litigation is about disputes and covers almost every area of law as it involves an alleged breaches or wrongs caused during a legal relationship of any kind between two or more bodies which could include an individual, business or government entity.
Disputes can come in all types of areas. Merton solicitors specialise in property related issues so we can deal with as disputes between landlords and tenants or boundary agreements.
The most common disputes that arise are those between consumers and businesses or businesses and businesses. Our clients range from individuals to banks and blue-chip businesses.
Finally disputes arise between families. We handle inheritance disputes relating to inadequate Wills and Probate distributions, lack of capacity for will-making and any undue influence claims. Claims made under undue influence relate to being influenced by someone to draft a will according to someone else and not the will writer’s free will.
