    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.

    “I first met Sally Eastwood's Assistant / Secretary, then I met Sally herself. I noticed lots of good things during the advice I received, but especially the communication skills of both Ladies. Letters were sent, agreements made, and I ended up much better off for their troubles! I would definitely recommend this firm.”

She has answered all my questions and provided invaluable guidance, and I now feel completely prepared me for my upcoming hearings. I’ve felt comfortable and listened to throughout the process. Thank you very much Vicki.”
