What is a breach of contract?

A breach of contract occurs when one of the parties in an agreement fails to hold up their part of the deal. For example, a school bought £2000 worth of IT equipment which would be sold and delivered by company ‘x’. It has now been 2 months and the school has still not received the equipment. This would now be classed as ‘late’ and company x would be breaching the contract.

Solutions for resolving contractual disputes

Over the years, we have developed our ability to help mediate and solve contractual disputes between employers, employees’ members of the public and others. If the dispute cannot be resolved and goes to court, we will ensure that we try everything in our power to get the best outcome for you.

For most instances when no action has been taken or agreements made, it will go to court where a decision is made by a judge. However, no one wants to go to court as it can be a long process costing you time and money. Mediation can be a method used to help resolve contractual disputes between parties.

Process for contract disputes

Typically, below is the process by how we help contract dispute negotiations.

Action 1: We will review the contract/s that are in question and analyse them to understand the disputes so that we properly know how to handle the situation.

Action 2: We will explore what options are available having analysed the contract/s and explain to the parties what actions can be taken.

Action 3: If we have decided that no mediation is possible or nothing can be done mutually, we will then consider taking the case to court where it will be examined by a judge.

Action 4: This stage is where we will consider the costs of either going to court or mediating damages. We will outline the costs to both parties, so they know which path is best for each other.
