Walker Morris has one of the largest and most successful Commercial Dispute Resolution teams outside London, offering specialist legal services in litigation, international arbitration and alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
We help our clients to avoid disputes becoming litigious wherever we can. Right from the very start we‘ll work with you to develop a clear strategy. Our role is to optimise any pressure points and find opportunities to resolve the dispute. We make decisions based on the outcome you need and we don’t lose sight of cost. We’re mindful of early dispute resolution and we’re fortunate to have accredited mediators in our team.
If disputes can’t be avoided, our formidable experience as litigators means that we’re in the perfect position to manage even the most complex and demanding of disputes.
All our Partners have significant trial experience and we’re proud to be able to claim numerous successes in the High Court, as well as the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court. We also have extensive experience of using ADR procedures such as mediation to obtain commercial settlements for our clients.
Our clients are in every industry sector, ranging from multinational corporations and major financial institutions through to SMEs and high-profile individuals. We regularly advise on potentially contentious aspects of major corporate and financial transactions, and with an increasingly global client base, our international arbitration practice is growing rapidly.
