Negotiating from a position of strength

In business it is always better to get things right from the outset and have good relations with your customers and your suppliers. We work with you to make sure that the law does not get in the way of your commercial relationships. A dispute avoided is far more profitable than a dispute ‘won’.

Lawyers can make really good fees once a commercial problem has fully matured. Although this is good for the lawyers it is bad for all the businesses involved. In commercial litigation even the winning party can end up many thousands of pounds out of pocket.  This strikes us as essentially unfair. We work closely with you to minimise your exposure to expensive disputes. We work on a fixed fee which relies on you avoiding disputes. You can call us any time at the first sign of trouble and we can advise. If a dispute develops you will always know your legal options and you can negotiate from a position of strength. Sometimes medium sized businesses threaten to ‘refer this to my legal department’. 9 times out of 10 there is no ‘legal department’. Helix allows you to say it and mean it.
