About commercial litigation matters

Commercial litigation covers business disputes that haven’t resolved through negotiation. Most matters fall into contract disputes, debt recovery, shareholder oppression, partnership disputes, or breach of fiduciary duty. Court jurisdiction depends on dispute value — Local/Magistrates Court for smaller claims, District/County for mid-range, Supreme or Federal Court for major matters.

How matching works

You fill in the form on the right. A real person from our intake team reviews your matter, normally within 2 business hours. We match you to two or three verified commercial litigation lawyers who fit your matter, location, and budget.

You then choose who to engage. We don’t take a referral fee from you. Lawyers pay us a published, fixed per-accepted-enquiry fee — same rate for every lawyer in your matter profile and city.

  • Free for you. Always.
  • Verified specialists only. Practising certificate cross-checked.
  • No auction. Lawyers pay published rates, not bids.
  • Your details stay with the matched lawyers only. See privacy policy.
