Most litigation outcomes are shaped long before trial — often before proceedings are even issued. In this CPD session, Jonathan Fletcher Wright and Andrew Lynn examine the decisions taken at the very start of a claim that determine its scope and prospects of success.
Focusing on commercial and Chancery practice, the session looks at pre-action conduct, limitation, interim relief, forum and jurisdiction choices, and how to decide between Part 7 and Part 8. It also addresses identifying the correct parties, pleading discipline, disclosure and evidence strategy in the Business & Property Courts, and the effective use of settlement and costs pressure.
The session provides a practical, court-focused framework for litigators seeking to make sound strategic decisions from day one and avoid costly procedural missteps.
