Civil Litigation

Rather proceeding ahead with a civil litigation for dispute resolution, we always recommend an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), mediation, negotiation, arbitration and conciliation approach to resolve matters swiftly. However, if this should fail, we than ask the court to intervene.

As Civil Solicitors in Birmingham, we do everything possible to ensure a smooth court process, matters can sometimes prove to be quite lengthy, cumbersome and complex for both parties. It’s also a very time-consuming process filling out the various court forms which are needed to file a civil suit. So, our first recommendation is always settling the matter out of court, just to reiterate, as it can save you time and money.

However, if any of the ADR methods prove to be unsuccessful, our civil litigation department will work with you to bring a civil claim to court to resolve the dispute as discreetly and smoothly as possible. It should be kept in mind that any kind of litigation process is not quick, ‘to the point’ or straightforward, but with that said, quite a few cases do not end up going to trial.

Whatever grounds you have for a civil dispute, we will evaluate your claim to ensure a positive outcome, ensuring that you have adequate funding, while gathering the required evidence to build your case. We will represent you in court as your civil litigation representatives, working hard to have the final verdict presented in your favour.

We at A&H Law Solicitors understand that Family Law matters can be very stressful. We do our best to ensure that cost associated with these matters are tailored for each client. An example would be during the process of divorce. The cost of the divorce itself is usually quite small compared to what it can cost to separate your finances.

If your spouse contests the petition this could increase the cost of your divorce proceedings. However, this is not especially common. Potentially, where most of your costs will lie is in the separation of your finances. Therefore, a simple divorce petition would cost the client £800 plus Vat plus the court fee which at present is £593. However, should the client choose to also manage their finances within this petition, the cost will increase. The cost will be subject to the amount of work which will be required. If parties have agreed how their finances are to be split, your costs may be in the region of £3000 plus disbursements such as consent order fees in the region of £119. However, should the spouse contest the financial petition this could increase cost of your divorce.

Child contact is another stressful process for parents who want to simply continue contact with their child/children following a separation. We can do this in stages of your case which gives you even more flexibility. For example, in a family child contact matter, a fixed fee for the first stage of the proceedings can been agreed. The first stage includes, arranging mediation, completing the C100, file and serve the issued C100, compiling the court bundle and representing you the First Resolution Dispute Hearing (FRDH). For this stage, we have a fee package of £1600 plus Vat. The current court issuing fee is £255. The next stage of these proceedings will depend on the outcome at the FRDH.
