That’s where Sultan Legal steps in: we help you regain footing, clearly and confidently, with NSW commercial dispute expertise.

How We Help

Step 1: Case Review & Strategy
We examine your contract, emails, invoices—everything. Then we explain your legal position: breach, damages, enforceability.

Step 2: ADR & Negotiation
Court isn’t the only way. We’ll test options like mediation (mandatory under some NSW lease laws) or accord and satisfaction—fast, confidential, often effective.

Step 3: Formal Proceedings
When negotiation fails, we file in the right forum—Local, District, Supreme Court or Federal Circuit and Family Court.

Step 4: Court Representation
Your case. Our advocacy. Hearings, affidavits, directions—all managed by a solicitor who knows NSW norms.

Step 5: Enforcing Judgments
Won the case? We help you enforce orders—writs, garnishee processes, asset seizure—so the win counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if someone breaks a contract in NSW?
Depends on the breach. You might claim damages, cancellation, or specific performance. Courts assess loss in real terms—it’s not automatic.

Can I take a business partner to court?
Yes—but you’ll need solid evidence: agreements, emails, records. You’ll choose between local court, district, or tribunal depending on sums and complexity.

Is mediation always required?
Not always—but in some cases like retail leases, it’s mandatory under NSW mediation laws. Even if not, it’s often faster and less costly.

How long do I have to act?
Standard limitation is six years from the breach date, but specifics vary. Best to get advice early rather than risk time running out.

What legal costs can I recover?
Courts may award party/party or solicitor/client costs, but not always in full. We’ll advise on likely recoveries before you proceed.
