Litigation
The senior members of our team have many years’ proven experience in carrying out litigation in the High Court and Court of Appeal. Hodge Jones & Allen have acted in cases for businesses and individuals for over 40 years. We understand how stressful, sensitive and time consuming litigation can be. For that reason, we also advise it that entering into litigation should be a last resort.
The focus of Hodge Jones & Allen is to resolve the dispute. Our first task, upon instruction is to understand your business, from the products or services you sell to company structures and finance. This allows us to provide strategic and relevant advice.
Alternatives to litigation
Our priority is to solve the problem as soon as possible, and not exacerbate a dispute. Due to this, we will always consider other forms of dispute resolution, commonly referred to as alternative dispute resolution (“ADR.”) Examples of ADR are mediation and negotiation. We are also able to advise if arbitration is appropriate, or even necessary.
Hodge Jones & Allen always considers all forms of dispute resolution before advising that litigation is the most appropriate course of action
Where ADR cannot assist, and recourse to litigation is necessary, we are able to proceed efficiently with litigation. Litigation can be a costly and time consuming exercise, and we provide our clients with clear cost advice. Due to the size of our team we are able to offer a range of legal fees. This ensures any unavoidable litigation is carried out proportionately and promptly.
