Review for Morgan Solomon

Morgan Solomon

"What we appreciated most about working with Morgan Solomon was his extraordinary ability to absorb and process information on his feet and cut through peripheral issues. A good lawyer needs to remain calm, collected and outcome focussed throughout a tough negotiation. Morgan ticked all of these boxes, and more. He’s also a wonderful guy and really easy to work with."

Review for Brandon Hetherington

Brandon Hetherington

"Brandon and the team and SHL were excellent to deal with. Their advice was clear and articulated in a manner that I could understand. They worked to some critical deadlines that I had which was very important. I would highly recommend and will certainly use their services again in the future. I would like to recommend Brandon Hetherington, Brandon has been amazing. Without his professionalism I probably would of going crazy. He explained everything in layman terms, which was great. Thanks once again, if you need a lawyer this is the place to go."

Review for Andrew Bower

Andrew Bower

"Andrew Bower represented me in a very messy business partnership dispute. Andrew’s professional conduct, court mannerisms and high quality of work was amazing! His knowledge of the legal system and attention to detail gave me peace of mind every step of the way. The last 12 months have been a stressful legal roller coater ride and in December Andrew put a successful end to that chapter. I would highly recommend Andrew and I cannot thank him enough.

Review for Craig Hollett

Craig Hollett

"I recently employed Craig Hollett when my partner required defence in a complex criminal matter. From the outset of this very difficult journey, Craig’s professional and approachable manner put me at ease. Navigating foreign legal processes was incredibly unnerving, but Craig’s extensive knowledge and patient explanation made the experience far less daunting. Craig was always available to me when I required advice and guidance, which made me feel as though there was someone I could trust in the midst of a great deal of turbulence. Although he was kind and reassuring, Craig was straight down the line and made sure I was fully aware of all possible outcomes, even when it was not what I wanted to hear. The compassion and genuine concern he showed was extraordinary, as was his unwavering performance in court. With Craig’s guidance, we were able to obtain the best outcome we could expect, and I will be forever grateful to him. I could not be more pleased with the service that Craig provided and would not hesitate to recommend him."

Frequently asked questions

Why should I choose Solomon Hollett Lawyers as my commercial litigation law firm?

We work with businesses every day to help them identify risks, pre-empt disputes and put the right protective strategies in place. We prefer to work with clients at this early stage in their business, rather than working with clients who have not taken these steps and are then forced to spend significant time, emotion and money to get out of the mess they may find themselves in.

Our mantra is that you are much better off spending a little early and investing in protective measures and strategies to protect your business in order to avoid having to spend a lot to fix the problem after the horse has bolted.

When it comes to legal advice on commercial disputes, assistance is usually recommended from day one when the dispute begins to loom as disputes can snowball and become complex very quickly. If a dispute has arisen or looks like it may start bubbling away, we’re also very adept at helping clients take the right steps early on, which often allows them to nip it in the bud at an early stage and avoid the lengthy and stressful path of litigation.

Shutting disputes down early is often the key and this is where we come into our own, bringing a perfect marriage of legal expertise, technical excellence, sound insight and commercial understanding.
We are experts when it comes to commercial law and commercial litigation; we have years of experience dealing with small and large clients alike, across a wide array of industries.
Put simply, we’re real people with lifetimes of real experience in this arena.

When should I consult a commercial litigation lawyer?

It’s advisable to consult commercial litigation solicitors at the first sign of a potential dispute or when you foresee a situation that could lead to a legal conflict. Early legal intervention can prevent escalation and lead to quicker, more cost-effective resolutions

What types of commercial disputes do you handle?

We can help with a range of disputes including contract breaches, partnership disagreements, shareholder issues, property disputes, and more. We cater to businesses of all sizes across various industries. 

How do you approach resolving commercial disputes?

We tailor our approach based on the specifics of each case, utilising negotiation, mediation and, if necessary, litigation. We always aim for the most effective and efficient resolution while safeguarding your interests. 

Can all commercial disputes be resolved out of court?

While many disputes can be resolved through negotiation or mediation, some may require court proceedings, especially if they involve complex legal issues or if the parties cannot reach an agreement. Sometimes, it may even be necessary to commence court proceedings as a protective mechanism to prevent damage to a business being caused. 

What strategies do you use to prevent commercial disputes?

Our commercial litigation team focuses on risk management, clear contract drafting, regular legal reviews, and proactive communication strategies to prevent disputes. Early legal planning is key to avoiding potential conflicts down the line.
