How Aprim Legal assists

Commercial Litigation

Commercial disputes are easier to assess when the agreement, payment history, communications and claimed loss are organised before the first conference.

The first consultation is used to identify the immediate issue, any deadline, the available evidence and the most practical next step.

What to prepare

Documents and information to bring

  • The signed contract, all schedules, amendments, variations, purchase orders and relevant terms and conditions.
  • Invoices, payment records, credit notes, account statements and any calculation of the amount claimed or disputed.
  • Important emails, letters, text messages, meeting notes and notices exchanged with the other party.
  • A short chronology identifying what was agreed, what occurred, when the dispute arose and any response deadlines.
  • Details of the outcome sought, including payment, completion of work, termination, rectification or a negotiated resolution.
  • Any court, tribunal, mediation, statutory demand or formal dispute-resolution documents already received.

Questions for the first conference

Issues the solicitor will usually need to clarify.

  • Is there a written dispute-resolution, notice, termination or jurisdiction clause?
  • What evidence supports the alleged breach and the loss said to result from it?
  • Are there urgent limitation, court, insolvency or contractual notice deadlines?
