HomeCase studiesPrivate clientsCommercial litigation and dispute resolutionHelping two private clients achieve a positive outcome without significant costs

Why the clients needed our help

We were instructed by two individuals who sought to issue proceedings against a party to a commercial agreement.

How we helped

We provided comprehensive advice on the extent of the claims the clients could raise against the party, and identified additional claims against third parties which the client had not considered previously. The claims included breach of contract, professional negligence, and fraudulent misrepresentation.

The outcome

Our advice helped the clients understand the full scope and strength of their claims, enabling them to make informed strategic decisions. We assisted with the preparation of pre-action correspondence, aiming to settle the matter in the clients’ favour without incurring the substantial costs of litigation, which was their preference.

Everyone I spoke to at Francis Wilks & Jones was friendly and helpful as well as being objective and transparent about my case. Communication was easy and swift all the way through and the work carried out was thorough and efficient. I feel that Andrew got me the best outcome possible. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
