Civil Proceedings & Dispute Resolution

"Legally protecting your rights."

Civil Proceedings & Dispute Resolution

Finding yourself involved in a legal dispute can prove unsettling and stressful, particularly if the dispute is with a commercial organisation or government body.

You may find yourself involved in disputes related to landlord and tenant issues, neighbour disputes, unpaid bills as well as professional negligence, breach of contracts and/or agreements, intellectual property disputes and general business disputes.

It is vitally important to seek legal advice if you are to fully understand the legal proceedings involved and the necessary steps to take to help secure the best outcome.

Increasingly, we are seeing people face defamation, in which their personal or professional reputation is brought into disrepute.

Typically defamation can occur when a false statement has been made public via print, radio or television, and increasingly through social media sites.

In such cases you could be entitled to bring action against the individual or institution responsible for questioning your character or conduct.

Be assured at Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan , our specialist litigation team will provide you with the most appropriate advice and representation for your set of circumstances.

I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how incredibly helpful and professional we found Katya to deal with during our recent house purchase. Katya was extremely patient with all of our questions and calmly and efficiently helped us through the whole process. Of all of the solicitors we've dealt with she really was the most pleasant, helpful and effective one we have worked with.

I just wanted to say how happy we were with the service Keith provided when we were changing our mortgage earlier this year. Keith’s efforts were of the highest standard. He was extremely fast, helpful and professional in his approach. Things were getting tight because of interest rate deadlines and Keith really helped to get it over the line. This will save us a lot of money over the course of the 7 year fixed term. I would highly recommend PKHL to anyone considering moving house or remortgaging their home.
