As a Commercial Solicitor you need to be able to respond to your client’s needs very quickly. You will often be asked to consider a large number of documents in a short period of time, and identify matters which are of key importance.
Civil litigation encompasses a broad range of disputes. Civil litigators generally specialise in one or two specific practice areas.
Types of civil litigation include:
You need to be thorough and incisive, but you also need to keep matters in perspective because you may not have time to deal with every last detail.
Clients will expect you to move quickly because, in their mind, a transaction is completed a soon as they have agreed terms. Producing the legal documentation necessary to record the agreement does of course take slightly longer
