Commercial Disputes

In a competitive and highly regulated business environment, commercial disputes frequently arise, be they contractual, tortious or relating to unfair trade conduct.

Our experienced litigation team advises and represent national and multinational clients in all types of cases, from large scale commercial litigations to highly complex sensitive disputes, across a broad spectrum of industry sectors throughout Australia.

We bring market-leading experience, strategic commercial judgment and an unwavering commitment to achieving our client’s preferred commercial outcome to every case. Our litigators are turned to time and again for commercial disputes when the stakes for our clients could not be higher.

The team was very resourceful, prompt and a delight to work with - for dispute resolution generally, I very strongly recommend Corrs.
