Our Approach
Most commercial disputes we see could have been avoided by a better-drafted contract at the outset. Where possible, we work with clients before a deal is signed, not just after it goes wrong. Where a dispute has already arisen, we assess whether litigation, arbitration, or a negotiated exit is the commercially sensible route, since the legally “correct” answer is not always the commercially best one.
When to Consult a Corporate Advocate
Before signing any material contract, before bringing on a co-founder or investor, and the moment a business relationship shows signs of breaking down.
