New Year Resolutions for your Business
What if I told you that we have prepared a list of New Year’s resolutions that do...
For a business, unresolved disputes can mean faltering performance, disillusioned staff, wasted ‘man hours’ and an inability to move forward. Mediation can be a quicker, less costly, and confidential way of resolving disputes by agreement so that you can get back to doing business and developing your commercial relationships.
Disputes of all kinds involve ever-increasing worry, expense and time. They often result in irreparable damage to important relationships, having a lasting effect on a business and it’s people. Commercial disputes can arise from broken contracts, claims brought against the business, or claims brought by the business against individuals or other companies.
In commerce, court proceedings are seen by most as a last resort; there usually a preference to find a fair settlement, at minimal cost to both sides in terms of both time and money, enabling both sides to move forward and resume focus on their business and any ongoing business relationships that need to be preserved.

“A first choice for truly contentious Litigation in Automotive and Asset Finance and Leasing. His pure skill in tricky work wins through time and again and adds real value compared with the so called 'top tier' litigators. Truly capable, amenable and commercially minded business partners, the 'master chessmen' of their specialty.”
“I have had the pleasure of working with several members of the team at Laceys regularly over a period of years. I found Rob Kelly in particular, who worked on a successful litigation case for me over a period of several years to be outstanding in all aspects of the work he undertook, and the manner in which he did it. I now consider him a friend. I would not - and have not - hesitated to recommend Laceys to my family and friends, and continue to use them for all legal matters.”
“ I just wanted to thank you for your great work on the professional negligence case and other cases you have represented Indian Ocean and Tiien through the last few years.”
“I've worked with a fair few lawyers over the years and Rob Kelly is the most on the ball and efficient lawyers I've ever come across. I'm looking forward to working together for many years to come.”
Rob is an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives (September 2009). Rob also holds an LLB (Hons) degree in law. He successfully completed training as a mediator under the ADR Chambers / Harvard Law Project Scheme and was one of the first mediators to have been appointed an IMI Certified Mediation Advocate in the UK with a commercial practice.
Rob specialises in dispute resolution through litigation, arbitration and mediation, with particular emphasis on contractual disputes, claims involving allegations of professional negligence (which he has prosecuted on behalf of commercial and private clients and defended on behalf of insurers, re-insurers and Lloyd’s syndicates). He is regularly instructed in connection with substantial disputes involving contractual, professional negligence, contentious probate issues. Rob also deals with contentious property and landlord and tenant issues.
Rob’s style is a mix of listening, asking (tough) questions, diplomacy and reality testing. He’s interested, flexible, and pragmatic. He offers a common sense, realistic approach to assist his clients in searching for solutions to their disputes and brings straight talking and integrity to his work.
