Frequently Asked Questions
What are the possible outcomes of litigation?
The outcome of litigation can vary depending on the facts of the case and the legal arguments presented. The court may decide in favour of one party, award damages or order specific actions such as the enforcement of a contract. In some cases, the losing party may be required to cover legal costs. Appeals may also be available if either party is dissatisfied with the outcome.
What is the role of a lawyer in the litigation process?
A lawyer in the litigation process represents their client’s interests by preparing legal arguments, gathering evidence, filing court documents and appearing in court on their behalf. Lawyers also provide strategic advice on the best course of action and can negotiate settlements to potentially avoid going to trial. Their experience and knowledge of the legal system are essential in navigating complex litigation procedures.
What is alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in the context of litigation?
Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) refers to processes such as mediation, arbitration or conciliation, which are used to resolve disputes without going to court. These methods are often faster, more cost-effective and less formal than traditional litigation. While ADR can be effective in reaching a resolution, it may not always be appropriate, particularly in cases where one party is unwilling to negotiate or compromise.

Traffic Matters
In NSW, traffic offences are taken seriously. Traffic offences can carry a mandatory licence disqualification or loss of demerit points. We can help with matters such as drink driving, drug driving, licence appeals, and licence suspensions.
A loss of licence can have a devastating impact on a person and their family, especially for people living in country areas. It is important to get competent legal advice as early as possible, whether you have received a penalty notice, had your licence suspended, or been charged with a serious traffic offence.
Nelson Keane & Hemingway can provide you with advice regarding the best strategy to either keep your licence or reduce the time you must spend off the road. If the matter goes to court, we understand that the best result is always achieved through thorough and careful preparation and experienced representation.
