Our Practice Areas

Commercial Litigation and Dispute Resolution

Disputes are an inevitable part of doing business. When they arise, they can pose significant commercial and reputational risk.

As dispute resolution specialists, NRM Online Lawyers helps clients to minimise these risks while striving to achieve the best possible commercial outcome. This often involves exploring various forms of alternative dispute resolution, such as round table discussions, mediation, conciliation, or arbitration. In other cases, it can be necessary to pursue a more aggressive approach through to a final hearing.
