Dispute Resolution

Finding the value in every resolution.

Dispute resolution has been a central part of Edwin Coe’s story since 1913. Founded as a specialist litigation practice, we are known for our clear judgement, strategic thinking and calm authority – qualities that inspire confidence and bring resolution when it matters most.

Our work spans commercial, personal, corporate, regulatory and professional disputes, many of them complex, cross-border and high-value. Whether acting for businesses or private individuals, our focus is simple: equipping to win whilst achieving lasting outcomes that protect relationships, assets, and our clients’ reputation.

 

Foresight in action

 

We believe the best results come from acting early and thinking ahead. Our team assesses risk and opportunity from every angle, drawing on specialists in litigation, arbitration, regulatory and insolvency matters to provide decisive, joined-up advice.

 

Many of the disputes we manage never reach the courtroom. We identify where value can be preserved or created through negotiation, mediation or strategic settlement – always balancing firmness with pragmatism and empathy. And when litigation is the right course, we are always ready – experienced advocates, quietly formidable in our preparation and resolve.

 

Connected insight

 

Each dispute sits within a broader picture. We work seamlessly with our colleagues across corporate, real estate and private client to ensure every issue is considered in its full commercial and personal context. Our international connections allow us to coordinate complex, multi-jurisdictional matters with confidence and discretion. This collective strength runs through everything we do – built on trust, a shared purpose and steady judgement.

 

Our approach is measured, collaborative and grounded in experience. The proof lies in enduring relationships and consistent results, the same foundations on which Edwin Coe has built its reputation for more than a century.

 

Collaborative in approach. Committed in purpose. Connected where it matters most.
