Commercial Litigation — Exeter
At Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP, our Exeter Commercial Litigation team advises businesses and individuals across Exeter, Devon, and the wider South West on resolving complex commercial disputes with clarity, agility, and technical excellence. Acting for SMEs, owner-managed businesses, professionals, and private clients, we provide strategic, commercially focused advice at every stage of the litigation lifecycle—from early pre-action guidance through to trial and appeal.
Our Exeter-based litigators are regularly instructed on a broad range of commercial disputes, including contract claims, shareholder and partnership disputes, and business relationship breakdowns. Each matter is approached with both legal precision and a clear understanding of the commercial realities facing our clients.
We recognise that disputes can be disruptive to day-to-day operations and damaging to reputation. Our priority is therefore to resolve matters swiftly and proportionately, whether through robust negotiation or decisive court action where necessary. Clients value our pragmatic, forward-thinking advice, designed to minimise risk while achieving the best possible commercial outcome.
Where appropriate, we advise on and conduct Alternative Dispute Resolution, including mediation and arbitration. These routes often provide faster, more cost-effective solutions and can help preserve valuable business relationships—particularly important for locally rooted enterprises.
Alongside mainstream commercial litigation, our Exeter team has experience in specialist areas such as professional negligence, insolvency-related disputes, emergency injunctions, collective claims, and judicial review. Our strength lies in understanding the broader commercial and regulatory context, enabling us to deliver outcomes that support long-term strategic objectives, not just short-term legal wins.
Commercial litigation has been a cornerstone of the firm for more than 75 years, and our Exeter practice builds on that legacy of technical excellence, responsiveness, and results-driven advocacy. Whether you are facing a dispute concerning commercial contracts, internal governance issues, or reputational threats, our Exeter litigation team provides trusted, locally accessible support backed by national expertise.
We act for individuals, institutions, and companies at all stages of litigation and alternative dispute resolution. Our work frequently involves high-value commercial and corporate disputes, including matters with cross-border or multi-jurisdictional elements.
By working closely with our clients from the outset, we identify key issues early and implement strategic yet pragmatic solutions aimed at achieving a swift and effective resolution. Our Exeter Commercial Litigation team is committed to protecting your interests and delivering outcomes aligned with your business goals.
