Hendersons Legal are experienced litigation lawyers in Melbourne. We bring 30 years of legal experience in commercial litigation, legal disputes and debt recovery. Our team can provide practical legal advice on these matters to our corporate, small business and personal clients.

Our commercial litigation lawyers make it a priority to take detailed instructions and get hold of all relevant documents as early as possible in any legal process. This is so that we can give our clients clear, practical and cost-effective legal advice about their commercial litigation concerns.

Whilst we all want to win every time, it is important to assess the strengths of every case from the beginning. Some clients have a very strong position; others are weak. Our commercial litigation lawyers work with all of our clients to ensure that there is a clear understanding by us and our clients of their expectations and desired outcomes. It is critical that these are established at the beginning and that they are frequently reviewed during the litigation process.
