Top 10 of 911 law firms for Contested Hearings, Litigation

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Contested hearings cover occasions when a dispute requires a court or tribunal to determine contested points of fact or law after pleadings have closed. In civil and commercial disputes, this usually means hearings on evidence, disclosure, interim relief, or procedural objections where the outcome directly affects the course of the case. A solicitor handles preparation for the hearing, drafts and settles statements of case and evidence, coordinates disclosure and expert reports, and appears to advocate on behalf of the client in the relevant court or tribunal. The work is shaped by the rules of court, evidential rules, and the timetable set by the judge or tribunal.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor manages the gathering and presentation of evidence, drafts and files witness statements and affidavits, handles expert reports, and navigates court timetables and procedural steps. They marshal arguments for and against interim orders, and coordinate with judges, clerks, and opposing counsel to secure a fair hearing while managing costs and risk around the court process.

Daniel Stern

Tagged solicitor Daniel Stern

We were referred to Daniel Stern to defend the business in a substantial international cross border dispute. He proved to be clever, tactically astute and provided very clear advice. As a result of his pro-active representation we settled a proposed claim against the business for only 23% of the sum claimed. We would certainly use him again and highly recommend him

I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding legal representation provided by Sheroze in our recent Contentious Litigation case. From the initial consultation to the resolution, Sheroze demonstrated unparalleled expertise, dedication, and a commitment to achieving justice. Throughout the entire process, Sheroze exhibited a deep understanding of the intricacies of our case. Their meticulous attention to detail and comprehensive legal knowledge were evident at every stage. They not only navigated the complex legal landscape with finesse but also ensured that we were kept informed and involved in every decision-making process and ensured it would remain commercially viable. What truly set Sheroze apart was his strategic brilliance during the process. His presence during mediation was nothing short of impressive, combining eloquence with a commanding grasp of the legal arguments. It was evident that Sheroze had invested significant time and effort in building a strong case on our behalf based on the true facts. The communication throughout the case was exceptional. Sheroze and his team were prompt in responding to our queries, providing updates, and explaining legal nuances in a way that was easy to understand. This level of transparency and accessibility greatly contributed to our peace of mind during what could have been an overwhelming and stressful period. His dedication to our case was not just professional but demonstrated a genuine commitment to seeking justice for their clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Sheroze to anyone seeking legal representation. His unparalleled expertise, unwavering commitment, and exceptional results make him a true asset to the legal profession. We are grateful for the positive experience and the successful resolution of our case, thanks to Sheroze's outstanding efforts.

I'm an estate agent, and I therefore deal with countless solicitors who are invariably below-par. What a breath of fresh air the team at Elite Law are! Sonia Balrai has just pushed through one of the most difficult transactions that I've been involved with for many years; without her tenacity, responsiveness, hard work and determination the chain would have certainly collapsed. If you're looking for a conveyancing solicitor, you should look no further; this team are at the top of their game.

Leah Newcombe

Tagged solicitor Leah Newcombe

The support we received from Ashtons in chasing up payment for some very overdue invoices was brilliant. Leah guided us through each step of the debt recovery process and took care of all the paperwork for us. We are delighted to have received payment in full and wouldn't hesitate to engage their services again in the future.

Afsha Ayub

Tagged solicitor Afsha Ayub

We used Levi Solicitors on the recommendation of the estate agents that we had for selling our home. I am so grateful to Levi,especially Afsha Ayub and all of Team Ayub on the selling of our property, and again Lisa Wilson and all of Team Wilson involved in the purchase of our new home. From the out set of the procedure the communication by mail, and email, kept my wife and myself informed , and on the occasions when we needed to talk to someone to fully understand the conveyancing procedures we were treated with respect by both Teams who took time to explain and resolve our questions. The selling was fairly straightforward , our old house was 30 years old on a modern estate development, and we had lived there for 25 years. The purchase was the complete opposite, a barn conversion, a developer who had three conversions on the same plot as his own property. Lisa Wilson’s specialist knowledge on this type of property was incredibly useful, as the seller/developer was unaware of Land Registry problems on the property. At the very last moment in the process as this problem was exposed , the very clear and concise advice from Levi and Lisa in particular, helped me to fully understand my options, and I will be eternally grateful for the support we’re given at this time. Thankfully, the issues were resolved, and we were able to exchange contracts and complete soon after. A small hiccup with one document with Land Registry came to light and I am so glad the completion Team at Levi were dealing with this on our behalf I would recommend Levi to anyone thinking of buying and selling their house. I found that the Teams under the solicitor all work together, keep excellent records of phone calls and emails, and post, and their professional consistent and considerate approach to the client helps greatly in the stressful conditions that exist during the house moving processes.
