In this discussion, Mishcon de Reya’s disputes specialists share their insights on how to approach litigation strategically and avoid common pitfalls. They explore why clarity of objectives and early planning are essential to controlling costs, timelines, and outcomes – and how reactive approaches can lead to wasted time and money. 

The conversation covers: 

  • Setting clear objectives and aligning strategy from the outset 
  • Managing costs and avoiding surprises 
  • Driving group actions and using media effectively 
  • Knowing when to pause and seek advice before acting 
  • Tools and tactics for achieving settlement 

With practical advice and real-world examples, our lawyers emphasise preparation and control as the keys to success. Whether you’re considering litigation or responding to urgent action, this video offers guidance on making informed decisions and protecting your position. 

Featuring Robert Griffiths (Partner, Technology Disputes), Richard Leedham (Partner, Group Actions & Commercial Litigation) and Alexandra Whiston-Dew (Partner, Mishcon Private).
