Drafting a without prejudice settlement offer or responding to one, to resolve a dispute before it escalates. A well-crafted without prejudice offer can often resolve a dispute quickly and at a fraction of the cost of contested proceedings.
What’s included:
• A consultation to understand the dispute and your objectives.
• Drafting of a without prejudice offer or response.
• Advice on the commercial and legal strategy behind the offer.
• One round of revisions based on your feedback.
• Final version ready to send.
What’s not included:
• Negotiation with the other party beyond the scope described above.
• Court proceedings and litigation.
• Mediation representation.
• Tax advice (including VAT, corporation tax, income tax, capital gains tax, and stamp duty). If specialist tax advice is needed, I can recommend a suitable accountant or tax adviser.
FAQ
Q: What does ‘without prejudice’ mean?
A: Without prejudice communications cannot be used as evidence in court. This means you can make a genuine settlement offer without it being held against you if the dispute goes to trial. It encourages parties to negotiate freely.
