No. Many civil disputes are resolved without court proceedings through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation. Court action is usually a last resort where a resolution cannot be reached.
The duration depends on the complexity of the dispute. Some matters resolve within weeks through negotiation, while court proceedings can take several months depending on the case and court availability.
Costs vary depending on the nature and complexity of the case. We provide clear advice on costs at the outset and aim to deliver cost-effective solutions tailored to each client’s circumstances.
