What are Business Disputes?

Business disputes relate to any kind of disagreement between two businesses over the terms of an agreement signed by both parties involved. They can happen in any kind of business arrangement and are mostly inevitable over a company’s lifetime.

The most frequent contract disputes are between business partners or between a business and certain contractors, suppliers, or clients. They usually happen when one of the parties believes either the amount of money paid, the delivered good or service, or the time frame in which the good or service was delivered were not executed according to the original agreement.

LIMITATION ACT 1980 – WARNING

The Limitation Act 1980 sets out strict statutory deadlines within which you must bring litigation claims. Your legal rights will become irreversibly time-barred if you fail to take legal action (or defend a claim on time). Therefore, you should seek specific legal advice about your legal dispute at the very first opportunity so that you understand the time you have left. Failure to take advice or delay in taking action can be fatal to your prospects of success.
