Litigation & Dispute Resolution
When Frank Law + Advisory was born in the late 1980s, our Founding Partner, Andrew Frank was determined to create a Litigation & Dispute Resolution team which knew that speed, commerciality and expertise was the difference between a successful and unsuccessful outcome.
Over the years our firm has continued to abide by these principles by providing efficient, timely and strategic advice to our clients which has resulted in drastically better outcomes for them.
The team is regularly instructed to act in matters involving debt and asset recovery, insolvency, corporate disputes, commercial and consumer disputes, secured and unsecured credit matters and matters involving equitable issues.
Whether it is implementing an accounts receivable (debtor) enforcement and collections policy or a major shareholders dispute, the team has the capability, commerciality and expertise to execute.
