Frequently asked questions
What types of commercial disputes can your Perth dispute resolution lawyers handle?
Our dispute resolution lawyers are equipped to handle a wide array of disputes including commercial conflicts, contract disagreements, partnership issues, property disputes, and personal legal conflicts. As a leading commercial litigation law firm, we tailor our approach to suit the specific nature and complexity of each case.
What’s the difference between mediation and arbitration?
Mediation involves a neutral third party facilitating discussions to help both sides reach a mutual agreement. Arbitration, on the other hand, is more like a private court where an arbitrator hears both sides and makes a binding decision.
How long does the dispute resolution process typically take?
The duration will vary depending on the complexity of the dispute and the chosen resolution method. Mediation could take a few hours to several days, while arbitration and litigation might extend over several months or even years.
Is dispute resolution confidential?
Yes, dispute resolution processes like mediation and arbitration are typically confidential, providing a private forum for parties to discuss and resolve their issues.
Can dispute resolution be more cost-effective than going to court?
Generally, yes. Methods like mediation and arbitration can be more cost-effective as they often require less time and resources compared to formal court proceedings.
What happens if a dispute cannot be resolved through mediation and arbitration?
If mediation or arbitration does not lead to a resolution, parties may proceed to litigation, where a court will make a binding decision on the matter. Our commercial litigation solicitors are ready to represent you effectively in court.
Do I need a lawyer for small claims or minor disputes?
While not always necessary, having a lawyer can be beneficial even in small claims or minor disputes to ensure your rights are protected and to provide guidance throughout the legal process.
How can a dispute resolution lawyer help?
Our dispute resolution lawyers in Perth can provide legal advice, represent your interests, prepare necessary documentation, and guide you through the resolution process, ensuring that any agreement reached is fair and legally binding.
What are the chances of settling a dispute outside of court?
The chances vary depending on the dispute’s nature and the parties’ willingness to compromise. Many disputes are successfully resolved out of court through mediation or arbitration.
How do I prepare for a dispute resolution session?
Preparing involves understanding the facts of your case, gathering relevant documents, considering your objectives, and being open to negotiation. Our dispute resolution lawyers can help you prepare effectively by outlining key issues and potential strategies.
