The Rowlands practice is experienced in the preparation of appropriate agreements and is able to advise shareholders and partners on their obligations and commitments, with a view to leaving as little room for uncertainty as possible. Uncertainty can lead to costly and time-consuming litigation. Should you find yourself in dispute with partners or fellow shareholders, our team of commercial litigation lawyers is accomplished in business litigation and ready to represent your interests. Our litigators have experience of such matters not only in the County Court and the various divisions of the High Court but also in the Court of Appeal. However, prevention is better than a cure and it is always better to seek expert legal advice at the outset or before embarking on any significant change.
Sensible steps taken at the start can avoid problems later on.
Court cases can drag on for many years creating bitterness, resentment and stress. If you have a suitably drafted agreement in place many needless disputes can be avoided. The terms and conditions on which you trade with customers, suppliers and intermediaries underpin the very existence of your business. It is important to consider, whether as the buyer or the seller, whose terms and conditions apply in any business transaction. It is not simply a matter of drafting terms and conditions in your favour as they need to meet certain criteria in order to be enforceable.
