Confidently resolving Jersey business disputes & litigation matters
In Jersey’s commercial litigation landscape, much of the work is dominated by large, full-service law firms. While this model may suit high-volume institutional disputes, it often lacks the flexibility and personal attention that complex, high-stakes matters demand. At Parslows LLP, we offer a distinct alternative, combining litigation expertise with independence, agility, and a bespoke approach. We serve clients who value strategic thinking, responsiveness, and a commitment to results.
We are a generally conflict-free, partner-led law firm delivering focused commercial litigation and dispute resolution services in Jersey. Our clients, directors, shareholders, trustees, professionals, investors, and businesses, turn to us when larger firms are conflicted, unavailable, or unable to respond with the speed and precision their matters demand. We offer strategic, agile representation tailored to the complexities of commercial disputes.
How We Work
Our commercial litigation practice is structured for precision, not volume. Every matter is overseen by a partner Advocate with direct involvement throughout the life of the case. This ensures continuity of advice, strategic clarity, and the confidence that your matter is being handled by senior professionals from the outset.
We are also built to move quickly. Whether applying for interim court relief, responding to emergent risk, or coordinating a time-sensitive negotiation, we act with the speed and cohesion that complex disputes demand, without unnecessary internal layers or delay.
Critically, our advice is not just technically correct. It is grounded in commercial judgment, practical to implement, and responsive to the broader context in which our clients operate. We pursue litigation when necessary, negotiate where appropriate, and always remain focused on securing the best available outcome.
Where We Add Value
We represent clients across a broad range of contentious matters, particularly those requiring independence, discretion,
or which fall outside the institutional priorities of larger firms. Our Areas of Specialism include:
We act in disputes between business owners, partners, and directors, often in the context of private companies, family enterprises, or joint ventures. These matters frequently involve overlapping legal and personal dynamics, and we help clients navigate them with clarity and discretion.
We advise on disputes involving trustees, beneficiaries, protectors, and other fiduciaries, particularly where larger firms may be conflicted. Our work includes breach of duty claims, disclosure applications, removal proceedings, and resolution of legacy trust issues.
We handle a wide range of commercial contract disputes, including breach of contract, misrepresentation, non-performance, and termination issues. Clients rely on us for clear, outcome-focused advice that cuts through complexity and drives resolution.
Property and construction issues can quickly escalate into contentious, high-stakes disputes. We represent clients across the real estate and development cycle. Whether advising landlords, developers, contractors, or private clients, our approach combines technical precision with commercial focus.
We act in fraud and asset recovery matters involving misappropriated funds, dishonest fiduciaries, and cross-border claims. Our team moves swiftly where urgency, strategy, and independence from institutional conflicts are critical. We are experienced in injunctions and coordinating with counsel to secure assets in Jersey.
Technology, data, and IP disputes are increasingly central to business risk. We advise on Jersey-based tech and IP litigation, from software contract breaches to shareholder fallouts in digital ventures. Our approach is fast, discreet, and commercially grounded, with confidentiality and reputation at its core.
We advise on quasi-employment disputes involving directors, executives, and business owners. Our focus includes restrictive covenants, executive terminations, bonus claims, and boardroom conflicts. As a conflict-free, partner-led firm, we act swiftly and discreetly in sensitive matters, offering commercially realistic, litigation-ready advice.
