Property Contractual Disputes

Contracts vary considerably in scope and complexity which could include verbal agreements through to long, written agreements. When reviewing property related contractual disputes, it is important to identify:

1. The terms of the contract. 

2. The meaning of the terms and how they may be interpreted.

3. The disagreement about what was intended. 4. Whether there has in fact been a breach of contract. 

5. What the losses are which follow the breach of contract. 6. What steps are being taken to mitigate against any such losses. 7. How remote the losses being claimed are.
