Correspondence with the Other Party

When disputes do arise, the first stages are often the exchange of formal correspondence. The initial correspondence in a dispute is critically important. It helps identify the issues, enables parties to understand their strengths and weaknesses, and can move them towards a resolution.

How We Can Help

We offer guidance on:

  • Pre-Action Protocols: Advising you on whether a pre-action protocol applies to your matter and ensuring compliance with its requirements. These protocols set out the necessary steps for pre-action correspondence and potential sanctions for non-compliance.
  • Expertly Drafted Letters: Crafting letters that clearly set out your position and advocate your case. We will also review correspondence received from the other party and advise on how it affects your situation.
  • Merits and Options: Identifying the merits of your position and the available options as early as possible. If correspondence alone does not resolve the issue, we will narrow down the key points and manage any ensuing court proceedings efficiently.
