Our Legal Services


Medical Negligence

Our experienced medical negligence Belfast solicitors represent clients in a wide range of claims, including wrongful diagnosis, birth injuries and spinal injuries.

We are highly experienced in this area of law and have a strong track record of success in securing excellent compensation payments. We are often able to agree out of court settlements so that there is no need for a hearing.


We know how daunting it is to start a legal case when you are suffering from medically induced injuries and we will do all we can to support you and give you the help you need throughout your claim. Our team will always be happy to hear from you and to answer your questions and we will keep you updated on your case as it progresses.


Human Rights

Our human rights team deal with a full spectrum of cases involving breaches of human rights as well as judicial review cases, to include in respect of education, institutional abuse and mother and baby homes. We work tirelessly for those who have been abused or who are vulnerable or who have received unlawful or unfair treatment.

Our lawyers are friendly and approachable and if you need to talk to us, you will find us to be sympathetic and understanding. We understand that you may be hesitant to bring a legal case and we will provide the assistance you need to secure justice.


Property

If you are buying or selling a property, you need an expert conveyancer to represent you. Having a lawyer with in-depth experience means they will be able to handle any difficulties that arise swiftly and effectively. This can be the difference between a transaction succeeding or failing. Our residential property team have extensive experience in a wide range of transactions, to include leasehold sales and purchases, newbuild purchases, transfer of land and property and remortgaging.


We know how important it is to move quickly in a property deal and we work proactively to ensure there are no avoidable delays.


Commercial law

Our services for businesses are extensive and our clients rely on us for advice and guidance across many issues to include debt recovery, drafting company agreements such as share sale agreements and franchising agreements and providing regulatory advice.

We are also known for our leading expertise in commercial dispute resolution. We can work with you to try and resolve disagreements outside of court, including by way of arbitration, adjudication, and mediation. Where necessary, we will prepare a strong case for hearing and ensure you are represented by an expert advocate.


Litigation

We are known as robust litigators and we routinely win cases in the areas of law that we practice, to include medical negligence, human rights, commercial, property and family law.

Our preparation is meticulous, and we will always put together the best possible case on your behalf. Because of our attention to detail and the strength of the cases we bring, we are regularly able to settle out of court. If this is not possible, we will prepare you for court and ensure that you always have our guidance and support.


We have offices in Belfast, Dungannon & Dublin.

We deal with all aspects of family law, including arrangements for children, domestic violence, child abduction and adoption. We also take on all types of matrimonial cases, to include divorce and separation, financial settlements, cohabitation, and pre-nuptial agreements.
