Forum choice

Arbitration, mediation, and court — choosing the right forum

A deliberate choice among court, arbitration and mediation — with partners who believe settlement can be strength when the law and the facts allow it.

The firm has expertise in handling all sorts of commercial dispute resolution, whether in an arbitration or mediation proceeding, or before the conventional court proceedings. The first question is not which lawyer speaks loudest, but which forum and process will best serve a lawful and durable outcome.

Several partners emphasise early settlement and mediation skills — particularly where long-pending litigation can be redirected toward negotiated outcomes without sacrificing legal position. Clients whose matters have remained pending for years often approach the chambers precisely for this combination of courtroom readiness and settlement craft.

Where mediation is not appropriate, the same file is prepared for trial or arbitration without loss of momentum. Parallel court support — notices, interim applications, challenges and enforcement — remains available so that negotiation never becomes a vacuum.

How we approach the work

We explore settlement from day one when it serves the client, while keeping the adversarial path prepared. Peace without preparation is wishful; preparation without openness to peace can be needlessly expensive.
