Commercial

Hardwicke has a strong track record of success in major commercial litigation, and many members of the division are recommended in the legal directories. Our work includes advice, drafting and advocacy in all kinds of commercial disputes, including company and insolvency matters, domestic and international trade, commerce or finance, together with niche specialisms such as media and franchising.

Hardwicke also excels in technical and complex cases, fielding specialists in areas such as intellectual property, IT & telecoms, construction and utilities. We acknowledge that Employment issues are often important in commerce and a number of our members offer a full service in employment related work.

Our barristers offer in-depth legal knowledge, unrivalled client care and are praised for their pragmatic commercial approach to resolving disputes. Often a client’s commercial goals mean that litigation is not the best way to solve a given problem. At Hardwicke, our barristers understand these concerns and we have broad experience in ADR and mediation. Hardwicke can also assist when there is no dispute. Our members often advise on and draft contracts and other documents, ranging from employment contracts and employee handbooks to standard terms and conditions of business or terms for software or website use.
