LITIGATION SUPPORT

We have a dedicated team of partners and qualified staff working on contentious matters. All members of the team are familiar with different types of claims and disputes as well as with the evidential and procedural requirements of the range of forums in which they might be assessed or concluded.

Our forensic specialists can draw upon Grant Thornton's wide experience of local, national and international businesses and institutions. We also have specific industry knowledge of many sectors.
