A dispute resolution solicitor helps people deal with legal disagreements and conflicts. This can include resolving disputes through negotiation, mediation, formal legal correspondence, or court proceedings, depending on the circumstances involved. You can read more in our guide about the difference between litigation and dispute resolution.

Yes. Many disputes can be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or other forms of alternative dispute resolution before court proceedings become necessary. The right approach will depend on the nature of the dispute, and whether both parties are willing to engage constructively.
The three most common types of dispute resolution are negotiation, mediation, and litigation. Some disputes can be resolved informally through discussion, while others may require mediation or formal court action.
Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) can often be quicker, less stressful, and more cost-effective than litigation. However, some disputes still require court proceedings where an agreement can’t be reached, or urgent legal action is needed.
