Commercial disputes

Recovery of debt under a supply agreement

An anonymised work example. Details have been changed to protect legal professional privilege.

01

Task

Confirm delivery, the amount due and compliance with the contractual claims procedure.

02

Legal work

The agreement, primary records and correspondence were reviewed and used to prepare the calculation and procedural position.

03

Outcome and limits

The case illustrates the firm’s evidence-led method. Facts are anonymised and every new matter requires an independent assessment.

Important

Every matter has its own facts

This example is not a basis for expecting the same decision elsewhere. Before making a recommendation, an attorney must review the documents, evidence and deadlines.
