Litigation & Dispute Resolution

In what are often challenging, frustrating and stressful situations, we offer you the support of our outstanding litigation and dispute resolution skills.

Experience counts
McLachlan Thorpe Partners acts on many of Australia's most complex disputes, hence our reputation for excelling when it comes to the difficult matters.

We have proven experience before the Australian federal and state courts, tribunals, and regulators including ASIC, the ACCC and the TGA. The skills and results we bring to actions initiated by regulators are recognised by our peers and clients alike.

Our experience is such that we are frequently asked to step in and take over difficult cases.

How we resolve your disputes
We advise and represent clients on disputes impacting their reputations and businesses, including corporate crime, building and contract issues, Trade Practices litigation, insurance claims, defamation, employment law and workplace relations, professional negligence actions, and regulatory compliance, including directors' duties.

We begin all litigation and dispute resolution matters by conducting strategic analyses with our clients to assess the pros and cons of taking action or seeking resolution. It is only when we have concluded our analysis that we determine the best way forward.

When it is necessary to stand firm, we show strength and resolve on behalf of our clients.

And at those times when alternative dispute resolution is more appropriate, our negotiation, mediation and arbitration skills deliver outstanding results.

Who do we help?
We act for businesses and individuals on adversarial litigation and arbitrations, negotiated settlements, advisory work and representation in conciliations.
