Contract Disputes

Contracts form the foundation of business and personal transactions. When a contract is breached, it can lead to major financial and operational losses.

Whether you are seeking to enforce contractual terms, recover losses, or defend against unfounded claims, we provide clear strategic advice and robust representation to protect your legal and financial interests.

At ELS, we handle complex contract disputes and work swiftly to resolve conflicts through negotiation, mediation, or court action where necessary.

We offer a range of services for contract disputes:

Breach of Contract

We act for claimants and defendants in disputes where contractual terms have been breached, seeking damages, specific performance, or other appropriate remedies.

Misrepresentation & Fraud

We advise where one party has been misled into entering a contract through false statements or fraudulent conduct, helping clients pursue or defend claims effectively.

Supplier & Business Disputes

We represent businesses in disputes with suppliers, customers, and commercial partners, protecting your contractual rights and minimising disruption to your operations.

Employment Contract Disputes

We handle conflicts relating to employment contracts, including restrictive covenants, non-compete clauses, bonus disputes, and wrongful termination claims.
