Commercial Litigation

Farnworth Shaw have experience in handling commercial disputes. Litigation through the courts is not always a commercially realistic solution. Other methods such as Mediation, Arbitration or Alternative Dispute Resolution can be used to bring a swift and efficient solution to the client's problem. Should a case have to go to litigation through the courts, we are able to act for both claimant and defendant in all courts.

We also provide advice on Employment Law and represent clients before Industrial Tribunals in unfair dismissal and discrimination claims. For details please refer to the Employment Law section of this Website.

Commercial Property

Farnworth Shaw have expertise in all areas of property law, acting for commercial, industrial and professional concerns from the large business client to those just starting out in business.

Our work covers all aspects of the acquisition and disposal of business premises including the negotiation of commercial leases.

Commercial Awareness

To enable us to provide a service upon which the firm prides itself we recognise the need to know the client's business and the people who run it. As a result, we are able to look at our client's legal problems in the context of the wider commercial implications to achieve the client's business objectives.

We are aware that the modern businessman must have a hands on approach to be successful. Time away from business, or office during business hours is counterproductive. We at Farnworth Shaw are able to see our commercial clients at their place of business as just a small part of our awareness of our client's business needs. We also offer in-house advice for their employees if required.
