Areas Of Law
Report
Litigation permeates numerous areas of the law because of the simple fact that things can and do go wrong. How the dispute is managed correlates directly to its resolution and particularly, the time and expense incurred. Court action should not be taken lightly though. It's important to evaluate all options before taking the step of filing proceedings in court and engaging in litigation.
Building & Construction
Report
With a myriad of laws governing this area, it's important to get a construction lawyer that knows what they're talking about. Our lawyers have extensive experience in building and construction payment disputes.
For example, Samantha Cohen (Cohen Legal's Principal) has instructed Queen's Counsel in the High Court in relation to a matter under the Building and Construction Industry Payments Act 2004, in which the application of that legislation to mining leases was considered.Sam's client was successful in opposing the application for leave to appeal.

Business
Report
There's different ways people can carry on a business. For example, it can be in your own name, through a company or a partnership. What follows from that is there are different ways a dispute might be resolved because different laws can apply. Or perhaps what originally started as an exciting and new joint venture between people with a common aim has gone sour because one of the partners has not held up their end of the deal.
