Dispute resolution

We will assess and investigate any contentious matter, regardless of the type of claim and provide you with a recommendation on the way forward. This is a cost-benefit analysis of a dispute carried out with you as early as possible, to arrive at a clear understanding of the best practical outcome. We identify the steps that are needed to achieve this and how much it would cost. You have more focus and control much earlier in the dispute, enabling you to make strategic decisions before committing valuable financial and management resources.

Sometimes there are better ways to resolve disputes than a day in court. Our lawyers are experts in the use of all forms of dispute management including negotiation, mediation, arbitration, expert determination and adjudication in disputes involving students and faculty, fees and other issues. In appropriate circumstances, these methods can ensure that you get an outcome that is quicker and less costly than full blown litigation. Where appropriate, we can train your staff to handle dispute resolution in-house.
