General Litigation.

Roger Wilson: Senior Partner - graduated in 1974 with an Honours Degree in Law.  Specialises in Personal Injury and also has many years experience in Criminal Law.

Civil Litigation is the method of resolving disputes or claims between individuals, local authorities and companies. The first is based on Contract (an agreement between two or more parties), and the second is based on a civil wrong caused by one party to another either deliberately or negligently.

The range of disputes based on contract can vary from a relatively minor case of the purchase of a defective item such as an electric toaster to a multi million pound claim arising as a result of penalty clauses in a building contract.

Civil wrongs include cases of personal injury, professional negligence and damage to property and reputation. If you are in dispute with another individual or company we can advise you on your chances of success and the possible value of your claim. We can negotiate on your behalf and if necessary commence or defend court proceedings which, according to the subject matter and the amount of the claim, will be dealt with in either the County Court or the High Court. We can also provide advice on the availability of legal expenses insurance and whether the case could be pursued on a “No Win, No Fee” type basis.
