Expert Advice For Resolving Business Disputes
There are various options in the resolution of business disputes, namely mediation, negotiation, and arbitration, each following a unique methodology to achieve a successful resolution. A dispute resolution lawyer from Marino Law can assist in all kinds of commercial disputes, including but not limited to:
- Contract disputes
- Lease disputes
- Employment disputes
- Franchise disputes
- Disputes between directors of a company
- Shareholder disputes
- Intellectual property disputes
- Partnership disputes
- Construction disputes
- Insurance disputes
- Accusations of negligence
- Defamation and injurious falsehood
- Debt recovery or insolvency issues
- Corporate insolvency and insolvent trading
- Trust disputes
- Financial disagreements
- Provision or acquisition of goods and services disagreement
- Misleading and deceptive conduct and misrepresentation claims
- Unfair contract terms
- Unconscionable conduct and duress
- Restraints of trade
During mediation, a mediator guides the conversation between the disputing parties, promoting mutual understanding and agreement. In contrast, negotiation involves the disputing parties working towards a resolution independently, without the involvement of an external entity. Arbitration, on the other hand, assigns a neutral third-party arbitrator to listen to both parties’ propositions before providing a final verdict on the matter in dispute.
Dispute resolution serves to promote collaborative environments, maintain healthy business relationships among the concerned parties, and offer cost-effective and efficient solutions compared to conventional legal proceedings.
It is always important to obtain legal advice before entering into litigation and dispute resolution. Contact Marino Law today to have an experienced dispute resolution lawyer talk you through your options.

A huge thank you to the team at Marino Law for sticking by me in my long divorce and property settlement, ensuring an outcome I was very happy with.
Their lawyers are exceptional, they are extremely competent and knowledgeable in family law, they are professional, diligent, and meticulous during each and every battle we faced and they really listened to what I wanted as a client.
Most importantly to me, they showed empathy, kindness and respect to both me and others involved, it is these attributes that raise lawyers from capable to outstanding.
I would recommend Marino Law wholeheartedly, particularly to anyone who values ‘fighting with honour.’
Penne S.
Marino Law are true professionals and engage with sincere care and attention. Their focuses on getting the job done efficiently rather than trying to find endless ways to bill you. Highly recommend, I couldn’t be happier.

I chose Marino Law after speaking with several different firms. They were forthcoming with advice, their concern for my situation was evident and they never mentioned engaging their services past that call.
It was because of this I chose to engage them for my custody dispute post separation.
Their commitment to their clients and the welfare of their children is evident, and their guidance made what was a very difficult and hostile situation bearable and led to an agreeable outcome.
I have since referred other people to Marino Law and can only advise others that having a dedicated team who give you expert advice and keep you from responding emotionally, during a very emotional time makes all the difference for the future of you and your family.
Thanks again

Amazing service, understanding and speediness of ensuring a resolution. I cannot recommend Marino Law enough from my initial enquiry to the end result. 5 stars and then some 🙂
Cammy M.
If you are in need of Family Law Experts then go to Marino Law. They were amazing and worked tirelessly on my case given the urgency I was faced with. Having previously engaged another law firm for 3 months that did not even contact me once they had my funds. So walking through those doors of Marino for the first time I felt finally at ease and confident that I was in the right place. I cannot recommend them more highly. Thank you for all your work, effort and the outcome.
Leonie F.

Our lawyers work diligently to identify and manage any potential litigation risks, prioritising efficient and cost-effective solutions wherever possible. They act as your staunch advocate, engaging with other parties on your behalf to strive for a resolution without resorting to a court trial. Our aim is to resolve your disputes promptly, ensuring your interests are secure.
Equipped with an extensive knowledge base and adept skills, Marino Law’s dispute resolution lawyers are here to effortlessly guide you through the informal resolution process. We offer unwavering support and practical advice every step of the way.
What If The Court Process Becomes Unavoidable?
Our commercial litigation team at Marino Law are well-versed with the diverse court requirements and procedures. They are on hand to assist clients to navigate through litigation while protecting their business interests.
Our lawyers have a deep understanding and extensive experience in dispute litigation. Often, our lawyers spot and evaluate potential opportunities for settlement while preparing a persuasive legal argument in the client’s favour. Contrary to common misconceptions, the role of our commercial litigation lawyers does not always have to come down to intense courtroom disputes.
At Marino Law, we will diligently handle all matters to meet critical deadlines. Our dispute resolution lawyers will ensure that you stay well-informed and in the driving seat throughout the entire journey, regardless of the path you choose.
What Happens If I Am Unsatisfied With The Outcome?
If the outcome of the business dispute is unfavourable, our lawyers will assess any potential strategies for appeal.
Is It Possible To Avoid Litigation?
The preferred pathway to resolution is always through mediation, negotiation and arbitration. However, if these non-litigious pathways are unsuccessful, litigation will be the final outcome for resolving commercial disputes.
What Is The Process For Business Dispute Resolution?
Early intervention by an experienced commercial litigation lawyer is critical to gain a strategic advantage and to preserve your position in business disputes. The process typically involves several key steps, each of which is carefully managed by your lawyer to protect your interests, including:
- Understanding the Dispute: It is important to fully understand the key issue that is causing the business dispute to begin with. Your lawyer will examine all relevant contractual obligations and ensure compliance with any prior agreements that specify dispute resolution methods.
- Communicating with the Other Party: Your lawyer will initiate calm and confident communication with the opposing party, making a concerted effort to resolve the dispute amicably.
- Drafting Correspondence: If an agreement is reached, your lawyer will formalise it in writing. If an agreement cannot be reached, they will outline the concerns in writing and allow time for a response before considering further actions.
- Engaging a Third Party: Your lawyer may recommend and facilitate alternative dispute resolution methods, where a neutral third party assists in finding an amicable solution.
- Pursuing Court or Tribunal Action: If necessary, your lawyer will advise on taking the dispute to court or a tribunal.
Our business dispute lawyers at Marino Law are able to provide personalised legal advice to assist clients at any point in the dispute resolution process.
