Alan Preston has significant experience of dealing with disputes involving breach of contract, breach of warranty, sales of goods issues, shareholder issues, professional negligence, intellectual property, insolvency law and partnership law.
Alan Preston has experience of resolving matters by mediation and we recognise the importance and advantages of alternative dispute resolution, in appropriate circumstances.
Debt Recovery
Bad debts harm good businesses. AJ Preston Solicitors offers a competitive debt recovery service which we are confident you will come to rely on as the first port of call should your business experience cash flow problems. We will consider each debt on its own facts and circumstances and agree a plan of action with you to pursue and recover the debt. This plan may involve:
- Writing letters before action
- Issuing civil proceedings
- Enforcing Judgments
- Serving statutory demands
- Issuing bankruptcy petitions against individuals and winding up petitions against companies.
If the debt becomes disputed we will first discuss the matter with you and then agree a further course of action.
We will be able to continue acting for you until the matter is concluded. Your matter will be dealt with, from commencement to conclusion, by Alan Preston.
Property Litigation
Are you a property landlord? Are you experiencing problems with your tenants? You may want to get your tenants out of your property in order to protect your investment or because of a failure to pay rent.
