Contract Disputes

For many of us, an increasingly large part of daily life is underpinned by contracts of one sort or another. From the terms and conditions governing your credit card, bank loan, car finance or mortgage, to the small print on your insurance policies and sales agreements, a binding contract not only sets out your obligations but also offers you protection.

Contracts are fundamental to the way we live our lives, so when they are at the centre of a disagreement, things tend to get complicated – quickly.

George Ide’s experienced dispute resolution lawyers will help you get straight to the heart of the matter, unravel the issues and understand the situation clearly. Perhaps the relationship between contracted parties has broken down or one of the parties is in breach or otherwise neglecting their obligations.

Whatever the problem is, we will help you resolve the dispute swiftly and efficiently, and we will strive to keep you out of court except as a last resort.

Always on your side in contract disputes

From start to finish, our knowledgeable team will advise you on the most appropriate and cost-effective course of action in your contract dispute – we are passionate about preserving your best interests and achieving your best-possible outcome.

Ian Oliver and Paul Lewis of George Ide Solicitors, and their appointed barrister, were outstanding in helping us defend an HMO licensing prosecution by a local authority. This was a complex matter which should never have been taken to trial by the local authority. However, thanks to the care, knowledge and tenacity shown by George Ide, the correct judgment was given. Thanks again for guiding us through this stressful experience.

Thank you seems such a trivial word and yet without your tenacity, we would not be here today. For all the medical providers you sought out and your words of stability at each and every stage I cannot thank you enough. You will never know how much of a difference you have made, without your constant reassurance and steps of transition to medical assistance especially during Covid I know I would not be at this stage on my journey.

Dear Paul. Thank you for you email. I am so pleased that everything has finally come to an acceptable solution. I am grateful for all your attention throughout. I have, at all times, felt supported by yourself and your firm and confident that you were working in my best interests to resolve the claim.

Kind Regards Janet

Paul Lewis

Dear Paul. Thank you so much for negotiating a satisfactory sum (exactly as you had predicted) and I am very grateful to have had the benefit of your excellent service throughout this ordeal. Horrid though it was, your expertise and guidance were of immense help. We can now happily put this whole thing behind us and finally move on. With very warm thanks and best wishes.

I would just like to thank you for all your hard work in settling my father’s case and in coming to an agreeable settlement with the insurers. Thank you for being so patient with us, and taking time to explain things in layman’s terms. You have led us through this process with ease and my father is very happy to have reached a conclusion in this matter . All your efforts are very much appreciated. Wishing you all the best.

I take this opportunity to thank you for the support, professionalism, and wonderful advice you gave us throughout this difficult time. It was a very stressful period for us as it was our first experience with the court. Without all your help and legal advice, I would undoubtedly have been in a much more precarious situation. Thank you so much for your support and hard work. On behalf of me and my wife I would like to say a big thank you for taking up my case and representing us as our legal counsel. When we thought it was too much to handle, you were there for us to give us strength and hope. We always found you to be very friendly when we needed any legal advice. Once again, I thank you so much for your understanding, for your patience, your dedication to my case and most of all, thank you for being friendlier, making us more comfortable with your advice and guidance than just a mere professional lawyer during that difficult moment. This means a lot to us, and we will be forever grateful to you.
