What People Say About Me

Asha
Great experience

Prakash Ruparelia was extremely knowledgeable about my benefits issue, where other firms had not been able to help me. He was communicative and reassuring, and provided sound advice that helped me to avoid issues further down the line. I would recommend his services.

Pensions advice

I highly recommend Prakash Ruparelia from Scott-Moncrieff & Associates. He helped my mother to find a prompt and cost-effective way of resolving her case. At each stage of legal process Prakash gave clear and concise advice and provided an honest appraisal about the merits of our case. This helped us to make informed decisions about what steps to take. Always calm and well-prepared, Prakash worked tirelessly to achieve a brilliant result for us.

Litigation

Introduction to Litigation

Litigation is a legal dispute between two or more parties. I advise clients in a wide range of civil and commercial disputes. My experience includes proceedings before Courts and Tribunals, as well as resolving disputes through negotiation or mediation.

The Stress of Legal Disputes

Being involved in a dispute, whether you are bringing a claim or defending one, can feel overwhelming. The procedures and rules are complex and lengthy.

Without support, litigation also becomes costly and confusing. However, getting the right legal advice early often saves time, money, and stress.


Early Legal Advice Matters

Many clients find that early legal advice changes the outcome of their case. With clear guidance, you can avoid unnecessary hearings and reduce costs.

I offer a free initial consultation and case appraisal. During this stage, I explain your options and outline possible strategies.


Areas of Expertise

I represent clients across England in a wide range of litigation matters. My services include:

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

ADR encourages both parties to work together towards settlement. It is especially useful where the cost of a claim may exceed the cost of litigation.

Arbitration

Arbitration is a voluntary process, often written into contracts. An arbitrator hears the case and can impose a resolution on the parties.

Conciliation

A conciliator does not impose a decision but helps both sides find common ground. Conciliation reduces conflict and encourages compromise, often avoiding costly litigation.

Mediation

A mediator assists the parties in working towards a settlement. The mediator may suggest a solution, but the parties choose whether to accept it.

Negotiation

Negotiation takes place directly between the parties or through solicitors. Unlike mediation, no third party guides the process.

Ombudsman Complaints

An ombudsman acts as an independent adjudicator. They examine the complaint, make a ruling, and can award compensation.


Why Choose My Litigation Services?

I have over 25 years of litigation experience. I represent clients nationwide and handle most matters by phone, email, or virtual meetings (Zoom or Microsoft Teams). When necessary, I arrange in-person appointments.

I also provide fixed-fee services. This means you know the cost at the outset and avoid unexpected bills.

As a fully qualified and regulated solicitor, I deliver services through the award-winning national firm Scott-Moncrieff & Associates Ltd Solicitors.
