Litigation is the process better understood as resolving a dispute via the court system in accordance with the law. Any dispute within a judicial system that involves two or more parties, whatever that dispute is about, can correctly be described as litigation.
In simpler terms: litigation is what happens when two or more persons, businesses or legal entities take legal action to settle any dispute recognised at law.
Allen Law takes on any dispute case. From cases involving unpaid invoices, the recovery of outstanding loan amounts, if negligence has caused you harm, or someone has taken your property, all the way up to complex, multimillion dollar business disputes involving multiple corporations and trust structures.
Whatever your dispute is about, big or small, we know how to safe guard and protect your interests.
We act for both plaintiffs and defendants in any type dispute.
We also act for third parties that have become involved in, or are interested in, the outcome of a particular matter, such as intervening amicus curiae (as a friend of the Court).
We represent clients in all disputes, no matter where they are located in Australia.
The types of disputes we undertake, include, but are not limited to:
We have experience acting for plaintiffs and defendants all over Australia, so whether you’re located as far West as Perth, as far south as Hobart, as far North as Darwin, or on the East coast, we can help.
Some of the courts we appeared for clients in, include:
Any State. Any Territory. Australia wide.
Different types of disputes which involve the court process need to be commenced within the correct court or tribunal in accordance with the legislation and rules which apply in that particular jurisdiction.
We have acted for both plaintiffs and defendants all over Australia and in most courts and tribunals.
So no matter the type of dispute or where you are located, we know the procedural rules which are going to apply, and can make sure your case starts off on the right foot.
Any Court. Any Tribunal. Any Jurisdiction.
If you become involved in a dispute, but prefer not to go to court, there are alternatives.

You may have obtained a judgment from a foreign court against a person located within Australia, or who has assets or an income in Australia.
In those situations, you likely want to be able to enforce that judgment in Australia to recover your legal costs and compensation without the need to sue the same individual again.
We have advised and successfully enforced judgments of foreign courts in Australia, unlike many law firms which have no experience in this special area of law.
Foreign judgment enforcement law is complex, whether or not you are enforcing a foreign judgment in Australia, or an Australian judgment overseas. So get in touch today.
In today’s modern, technologically advanced world, people can do the wrong thing – from anywhere in the world – and often, they can do it anonymously.
If someone is engaging in conduct which is wrong, and breaches a civil right you have, such as defaming you online, through an anonymous website and IP address, there are steps you can take to discovery his or her identity, and then take action against them.
We have experience in the pre-action procedures necessary to enable you to discover who he or she are, where they are located, and to seek remedies in Australia or in other jurisdictions in the world.
