Frequently asked questions: Commercial litigation
What constitutes a commercial dispute?
A commercial dispute arises when two or more parties disagree over a business-related issue or transaction, including contract breaches, partnership conflicts, shareholder issues and disagreements relating to intellectual property or commercial property.
How long does the commercial litigation process typically take?
The timeframe for commercial litigation varies depending on the complexity of the case, the willingness of parties to negotiate, and the court’s availability. Typically, straightforward cases can resolve within months, while complex disputes can extend beyond a year.
Can commercial disputes be resolved without going to court?
Yes, many commercial disputes are successfully resolved using alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation, arbitration, or negotiation, which can be quicker, more cost-effective, and less adversarial than court proceedings.
What should I do if I suspect a breach of contract?
If you suspect a breach of contract, you should promptly seek professional legal advice to assess your options and, if necessary, take immediate steps to protect your interests, gather evidence, and mitigate any potential losses.
What evidence is typically required in commercial litigation cases?
Common types of evidence include contracts, correspondence, emails, invoices, financial documentation, witness statements, expert reports, and any other records relevant to the dispute. Thorough documentation is essential in strengthening your case.
