Protect your rights and restore your relationships.
Dexterity Law offers pragmatic legal advice and representation when you are involved in a dispute.
Our approach to dispute resolution is to first help you identify clear goals for resolving your dispute, then work to reach those goals as soon as practicable. We will help you to use alternative methods for resolving disputes before proceeding to court (including negotiation, mediation and arbitration).
When a dispute first arises, it’s important to speak with an experienced lawyer as soon as possible to:
1. develop a strategy to resolve the dispute;
2. learn tips on how to negotiate a resolution without the need for court proceedings;
3. if court proceedings do occur, understand the likely cost of litigation and the risks involved;
4. adopt best practices for managing information in the dispute; and
5. get a good understanding of your legal position in the dispute.
Example matters Dexterity Law has assisted individuals, start-ups and SMEs with include:
1. defending claims of misuse of confidential information;
2. defending supreme court proceedings alleging breach of employment agreement;
3. defending VCAT proceedings alleging breach of duty and breach of contract on a construction project; and
4. advising clients on prospects of success in respect of potential claims for breach of contract.
