Civil Litigation
Manage your affairs, whether it’s business or personal
Problems can still sometimes occur that are impossible to resolve without going to court. Whether you are considering taking legal action against someone, or need to defend an action brought against you or your business, AMD Solicitors can help.
EXPERIENCED ADVICE
Whether you want to initiate legal proceedings or are on the receiving end of them, one of the most important things to establish is how strong your case is and the likelihood of you achieving the outcome you desire in court. AMD Solicitors have been established for over sixty years and our team have decades of experience between them, meaning we can give you an honest, realistic assessment of your chances. We will never recommend going to court unless we believe you have a good chance of success.
We will also advise you about how long the process might take and how much it could cost, so you have the best possible information before deciding whether to proceed or seek other options.

What our Clients say
“I recently got divorced and Jo Morris at AMD helped me through what was a really difficult time and made the process as easy and pain-free as possible. She was both professional, fair and supportive and it was a huge help and relief to know she was there behind me, navigating me through everything. She responded to all my communications in a timely manner and gave really clear information at all times. I would definitely recommend AMD and Jo.”

“I have been delighted with the service provided by AMD solicitors – I have used them over many years on several commercial projects and more recently for domestic conveyancing. Every one that I have had the pleasure of dealing with is transparent, straight forward and they speak ‘Plain English’, something the industry is not typically known for. I really value that I can pick up the phone knowing that all of my legal requirements can be dealt with in one place by a team of true experts. Highly recommended”.
