Points of Dispute, Replies & Negotiated Settlement
Robust Disputes, Smart Settlements
We draft technical Points of Dispute designed to withstand scrutiny and prepare concise Replies to any opponent’s objections. Our goal is rapid resolution – using negotiation, mediation, or ADR to get you the best result without litigation where possible.
Example:
