LITIGATION
OVERVIEW
Despite all efforts to resolve issues, sometimes, an appearance in Court is the only means left to finalise a matter. In such a case, Sojong can provide you with the necessary skills to proceed in Court while always keeping the option of a settlement open, so as to prevent the overwhelming experience of a Court hearing.
An initial consultation is strongly recommended, as it will provide an opportunity for us to assess the case and provide the best strategies in moving forward.

Arbitration and Mediation
As the best known form for resolving disputes outside of formal litigation (Alternative Dispute Resolution-“ADR”), in arbitration, a third party will render a final and binding decision after each party presents its view. It is especially useful where there are is unfamiliarity of legal system, cultures and languages and in cases where a parties do not wish to have the opposition’s courts resolving the issue.
