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.
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.

Tagged solicitors Marie Dawn Dancer and Victoria Rees
Richard Nelson LLP amazingly took on my case at short notice. They were quick to respond, clear, highly professional and kind. I realy felt listened to. They did their absolute best for the outcome of my case. I am especially grateful to Marie Dancer who took on my case at a realy short notice, Victoria Rees who worked over and above normal office hours to ensure that my case was a thoroughly well-put together piece of work. The barrister Wendy Hewitt from 5 St Andrew’s Hill chambers is the best. She was very supportive, re-assuring and honest which helped me to be more confident when giving evidence.

I found dealing with Jamie & Rachel at Thomas Flavell & Sons to be a thoroughly refreshing experience. Not only were they competent and professional, but they were also super friendly and approachable. We were kept up to date every step of the way. I cannot praise them enough.

Sarah Dureau assisted us with a recent litigation issue. Sarah was absolutely superb from start to finish, she guided us the entire way and really gave us the confidence to make some tough decisions. She kept us calm and was hugely professional throughout. We would recommend Sarah to anyone, she was factual and always on hand to answer any queries we had.
