What is dispute resolution and how can our dispute resolution solicitors help in London?

Dispute resolution is a structured process to settle civil or commercial disputes without court action. Our dispute resolution solicitors guide clients through negotiation, mediation and, where appropriate, arbitration, focusing on practical and cost-effective outcomes while safeguarding commercial relationships.

How does mediation fit into civil and commercial disputes?

Mediation uses a neutral mediator to help parties reach a voluntary settlement. It can preserve relationships, reduce costs and resolve disputes faster than court proceedings. We prepare clients, manage the process and document enforceable settlements.

What is arbitration and when is it appropriate?

Arbitration is a private dispute resolution process where an arbitrator makes a binding decision. It is commonly used for commercial contracts, international matters and confidential disputes. We support clients from assessment through to award enforcement.

Do you handle partnership disputes?

Yes. We advise on partnership disputes including deadlock, dissolution and breaches of duty. Our approach prioritises constructive resolution while protecting your commercial position.

What distinguishes alternative dispute resolution from court litigation?

ADR offers faster, more flexible and confidential solutions than court litigation. It allows parties to control costs, preserve relationships and achieve tailored outcomes through negotiation, mediation or arbitration.

How do you assist with international and cross-border disputes?

We advise on cross-border disputes by coordinating with international counsel, managing cross-border mediation and conducting arbitration under recognised international rules to achieve enforceable outcomes.

What should I prepare for an initial consultation with civil dispute lawyers?

Bring relevant contracts, correspondence and a summary of your objectives. This allows us to assess merits, identify ADR options and outline strategies for early and efficient resolution.

How will you advise on costs and funding for dispute resolution?

We provide transparent cost estimates, discuss funding options where appropriate and agree a cost-effective dispute resolution strategy tailored to your case.

Should a website visitor seek to ascertain the nature of our establishment, Aldwych Legal, it becomes essential for us to clarify the intricacies of our professional classification. Aldwych Legal is a legal consultancy, not a traditional solicitors’ firm. As an international legal consultancy and legal support organisation, we position ourselves distinctly apart from the conventional categorisation of a regulated solicitors’ practice. It is of paramount importance to transparently disclose that Aldwych Legal’s operational framework and support services remain independent of regulatory supervision by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and the Bar Standards Board (BSB). Our multidisciplinary team consists of legally trained professionals who operate within the framework of unreserved legal activities permitted under the Legal Services Act 2007. Where a matter requires a reserved legal activity, we collaborate with, and where appropriate introduce clients to, carefully selected external solicitors and barristers from our professional network. These regulated practitioners operate under their own authorisation and regulatory obligations. Aldwych Legal continues to deliver high-calibre legal support, strategic advisory work, and comprehensive case preparation with the same diligence and rigour expected of any premier legal service provider, while maintaining full transparency regarding our regulatory status.
