Client guide — Litigation & Other Matters

All client guides
How do I start a lawsuit?

Proceedings begin by filing a plaint and serving the defendant, followed by the court’s procedures. We guide you from filing to resolution.

What is the difference between civil and criminal cases?

Civil cases are disputes between parties seeking compensation or other remedies; criminal cases are prosecutions by the State for offences. We help you understand which applies.

How do I write a valid will?

A valid will must be properly executed and witnessed. We draft wills that meet the legal requirements and reflect your wishes.

Is this contract legally binding?

Validity depends on offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity and lawful purpose. We review contracts and identify potential issues before you sign.
