Commercial Dispute Resolution
Commercial disputes can be disruptive, time-consuming, and costly if not handled effectively. We work closely with businesses to resolve disputes as efficiently as possible, protecting commercial interests while helping clients focus on what matters most: running their business.
Arbitration is an alternative method of resolving commercial disputes without going through the courts. An independent arbitrator hears both sides of the dispute and makes a legally binding decision, often providing a faster and more confidential resolution.
​
At Green & Olive Solicitors, we represent businesses throughout the arbitration process, providing practical advice and strategic representation. Our focus is on resolving disputes efficiently while protecting your commercial interests and long-term business relationships.
An injunction is a court order that requires someone to do, or stop doing, a particular act. They are often used in urgent situations where immediate legal protection is needed to prevent financial loss or serious commercial harm.
​
We act swiftly when urgent action is required, advising you on whether an injunction is appropriate and representing your interests throughout the application process. Our priority is protecting your business before problems escalate further.
Construction disputes can arise between developers, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and property owners over issues such as delays, defective work, payment, or contractual obligations. These disputes can quickly affect project costs and completion times.
​
Our team provides practical legal advice tailored to the construction sector, helping clients resolve disputes through negotiation, adjudication, arbitration, or court proceedings where necessary. We work to minimise disruption while protecting your commercial objectives.
Partnership and shareholder disputes occur when business owners disagree over the management, ownership, finances, or future direction of a company. If left unresolved, these disagreements can significantly impact the success and stability of a business.
​
We take the time to understand both the legal and commercial issues involved before advising on the most appropriate course of action. Our aim is to resolve disputes efficiently while preserving business value and protecting your interests.
Contractual disputes arise when one party believes another has failed to fulfil the terms of a legally binding agreement. These disputes can involve payment issues, service delivery, performance obligations, or breaches of contract.
​
At Green & Olive Solicitors, we provide commercially focused advice that helps businesses understand their legal position and available options. Whether through negotiation or litigation, we work to achieve practical outcomes that support your business goals.
Professional negligence occurs when a solicitor, accountant, surveyor, architect, or another professional fails to provide services to the expected standard, causing financial loss or commercial damage. Businesses often rely on professional advice, making these claims particularly significant.
​
We carefully assess the circumstances surrounding your claim and provide clear advice on your legal options. Our team works to recover losses and hold negligent professionals accountable while protecting your commercial interests.
Director disqualification proceedings may arise where allegations are made that a company director has failed to meet their legal duties or responsibilities. A disqualification order can have serious consequences for both your career and future business activities.
​
We provide strategic legal advice and robust representation throughout investigations and proceedings. Our objective is to protect your position, minimise risk, and achieve the best possible outcome based on your individual circumstances.
