Contractual Dispute Solicitors

There are many factors to consider when determining if a contract has been breached and if you have a valid claim. Remember, a written contract is legally binding, even if you did not read the terms or the terms are unfavourable. It isn’t a defence to claim you misunderstood the legal effects of the contract. There is an exception if you have been misled by the other party, in which case the contract may be voidable if you act promptly. It may be possible to avoid a breach of contract and legal proceedings by varying or terminating your contract, though you will still need to pay damages for any breaches already committed.

Contractual disputes can be complex and difficult to navigate. Before taking any action, you should consult an experienced solicitor. Our specialist litigation team can help you make sense of the legal terms of your contract.
