This area concerns defending civil claims in England and Wales, where a solicitor will respond to a claimant’s allegations, draft a defence, and gather evidence to challenge liability or damages. They review pleadings, manage disclosure, instruct and cross-examine witnesses, prepare for case management conferences, and negotiate settlements or pursue or resist interlocutory applications. The solicitor represents the client in court and at pre-trial steps, aiming to protect the client’s position and control the progression and costs of the claim.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

They draft defences and replies, coordinate disclosure, instruct experts, prepare witness statements, and present arguments at hearings. They handle case management trials, injunctions, disposal of preliminary issues, and settlement negotiations, ensuring compliance with CPR and court deadlines. The role requires strategic assessment of liability, damages, and costs exposure, along with proactive risk management to avoid adverse orders or unnecessary litigation length.

Onboarding was simple as we did have a previous relationship with the specific lawyer. We found the advice to be thorough and pragmatic , never overstating our position to make us feel confident and aklways considering the potential opposing opsitions. Email and call response was speedy and, as much as you never want to pay a laywer's bill, we felt the advice was a 360 persepctive which allowed us to make informed decisions whe threatened with litigation.
