Dispute resolution swift and effective with Talbots Law
Disputes can arise in all areas of life, whether in business, between neighbours, or during a commercial contract. When they do, it’s important to resolve them efficiently and effectively.
At Talbots Law, the Dispute Resolution Team has built a strong reputation for achieving results – quickly, effectively, and with clients’ best interests at heart. Here are some recent examples the firm would like to share of how their expertise has helped businesses recover what they were owed:
When a Midlands-based printing supplier approached Talbots after chasing an £18,000 unpaid invoice for five months, Talbots stepped in to help. Despite repeated reminders, the London design agency involved failed to respond. Talbots say they acted swiftly, issuing a Letter Before Action followed by County Court proceedings.
Within 10 days of the claim being issued, the full amount plus interest and legal costs was paid. In total, more than £18,000 was recovered in under six weeks.
In another case, mediation was used to secure £45,000 for an engineering supply company who had approached Talbots regarding a £52,000 debt. The client disputed the charge, alleging defects. Rather than heading straight to court, the law firm proposed mediation, a more collaborative and cost-effective route. The legal team presented key evidence and negotiated a fair settlement of £45,000. Crucially, the business relationship between both parties remained intact.
And finally, A UK software company sought help after an EU-based client refused to pay a £22,000 invoice. Talbots confirmed English jurisdiction and issued UK proceedings. Working alongside international legal partners, they prepared for enforcement –prompting full payment before action was needed.
These cases prove that with the right legal support, recovery is not only possible, it can be swift and stress-free.
