All matters are supervised and coordinated by a partner and the client will have access to this partner throughout the case. Partners are usually far more involved in the running of a case that at many other firms.
The team regularly handles commercial litigation cases on a ‘no win no fee’ basis.
As well as handling general commercial litigation the department has specialised teams dealing with property litigation, construction and engineering litigation, intellectual property litigation and insolvency litigation. Details of these specialist areas are listed separately.
