Few people imagine that either their commercial or personal life could ever become embroiled in conflict. However, sometimes the unthinkable happens and you find yourself in the middle of a dispute that looks like it may end up in court.

Before things get out of control, you need to get advice from an experienced litigator.

If it is a business matter, you need a lawyer who understands not only your business but the litigation process. That lawyer also needs to be a strong negotiator and strategist. If your matter ends up in court, you need someone who is skilled in a courtroom.

At Monardo Solicitors, we always try to use alternative dispute resolution (negotiation, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, adjudication and expert determination) to avoid you ending up involved in litigation, whether it is a commercial or civil matter.

However, if it looks like your matter is going to end up in court, we know that your first priority will be to manage and minimise risk. Therefore, we will always give you a detailed and thorough assessment of your position, the various options available, and a strategy for achieving a timely and cost-effective solution.

At Monardo Solicitors, you can be sure that you’re in experienced hands. We have acted for clients in a range of matters in the local and district courts, as well as the Family Court of Australia and the Supreme Court of New South Wales.
