Legal 500 UK recommends dispute resolution team

Pinney Talfourd’s property litigation, commercial litigation and debt recovery teams are recommended by Legal 500 UK. 

Legal 500 UK announced their 2016 rankings in September and we are delighted to announce that our Dispute Resolution Department has been recommended in the following rankings:

• Commercial litigation
• Debt recovery
• Property litigation

Stephen Eccles heads up the Department and is recommended as a “leading individual” and ‘knowledgeable and efficient’. Legal 500 said the debt recovery team was “responsive and commercial”.

Legal 500 highlighted a number of notable cases including:

• Court of Appeal case involving a procurement contract and in particular breach of contract and the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977.
• Advising a well known retailer in relation to planning, development and break clauses relating to their warehouse facility. Value circa £10million.
• Advising in relation to the development of premises as a hotel including advice upon rescission, breach of an agreement to lease, damages and specific performance.

The Legal 500 rankings are carefully selected after rigorous assessment and provide a guide to the top legal providers across the UK.
