Running a business can be a challenging and daunting experience. More often than not, complicated legal matters can easily spiral out of control into even more serious problems for you and your business. A litigation lawyer can handle these ranging areas of law, allowing you to focus on the day-to-day running of your business. Read on to find out more about how a solicitor could assist you.
Debt Recovery
Solicitors can provide civil litigation for debt recovery. If you’ve been chasing late payments to no avail, court action can be taken whereby the debtor initially must be required to acknowledge and respond to a claim form that details the nature of the debt.
If there is no response, enforcement action can be undertaken. With professional help, this can be an efficient and stress-free process that represents a decisive action toward non-responsive debtors. With the assistance of legal services, you will be able to manage your business without complication throughout this process.
Breach Of Contract
If a supplier fails to fulfil a contractual obligation or fails to provide its services to an acceptable standard, civil litigation can be taken for a breach of contract. A contract dispute has the potential to damage the strength and effectiveness of your business.
A breach of contract can leave a business owner feeling deceived and morally disillusioned. And although this is a legal process that isn’t always simple, solicitor services can help attempt to prove that as a result of the contract dispute, compensation is deserved.
Through litigation you might even receive monetary damages, or the court may be able to order an injunction or interdict, whereby the contractual breach has to be remedied. This can help you to continue the running of your business without disruption.
Commercial Property Disputes
For an intricate legal matter such as commercial law, solicitor services are paramount to be sought at the earliest opportunity to avoid the dispute growing into something that disrupts the day-to-day running of your business.
Whether you are a landlord or tenant of a commercial property, the first step is to have any property agreements checked over and advised by a solicitor. If needed, litigation is an option that efficiently settles matters quickly to get you back to your business, rather than being caught up in its legal complications.
With support and advice from a solicitor, any issues can be dealt with as they arise, minimising the risk of a commercial property dispute spiralling into a larger and potentially more damaging problem.
