Personal Injury
A person injured as a result of the negligent conduct of another individual, may wish to seek compensation. Commonly arising from motor vehicle accidents, accidental injuries or defective products, negligence resulting in personal injury is a frequent reason for civil disputes.
Breach of Contract
When one contracted party fails to perform its obligations under the terms of a contract, breach of the contract may be sought under civil terms.
Family Disputes
Disputes and conflicts arising from family relationships are the types of civil litigation cases that most had some experience with at some time in their lives. Separations, child support and monetary arrangements are types of disputes commonly found under this banner.
Property Disputes
Boundaries and rights of way are just a couple of areas of property ownership that can be disputed. The damage and subsequent reparation in these types of disputes, might be more than just monetary.
Landlord and Tenant Disputes
Designed to protect both the tenant and the landlord, there are many rules around the governance of property lettings. Disputes as a result are common, particularly in relation to a party’s failure to comply with the terms of a lease and failure to meet tenant standards.
Workplace Mediation
Workplace conflict is commonplace but managed poorly it can quickly escalate into a dispute. Cases citing lack of opportunity, inadequate training and unfair treatment may benefit from mediation.
Neighbourhood Disputes
When choosing a home, people rarely consider their neighbours and the fact that standards of acceptability vary from individual to individual. As a result, disputes can often arise.
Intellectual Property Disputes
Intellectual property (IP) is within the remit of criminal law but often borders civil claims. In both scenarios, mediation may be a feasible way of reaching a resolution to a disput.
