FIELDS OF PRACTICE

Sol-Law accepts instructions in a wide range of legal fields including : -

	Preparation and conduct of commercial litigation at all stages (whether as plaintiff or defendant) including appeals.
	Commercial and corporate legal advice and services.  Fields of law  include company law, equity and trusts, securities, admiralty and maritime law, the law merchant, resource law (including forestry, mining and fishing), taxation, insolvency, building law, banking and finance, insurance law, foreign and local investment, estate planning and administration, commercial conveyancing, leases and licences.
	Corporate restructuring and government commercial entity privatisation.
	Drafting and settling of contracts and other commercial documentation.
	Trust account services.
	Foreign investment applications and advice.
	Alternative dispute resolution (certain commercial disputes are amenable to settlement through arbitration or mediation, thus avoiding litigation).
	Commercial support services.
	Notarial services.

While Sol-Law does not generally practise in non-commercial areas of the law, there may be occasion when it will be necessary, in the interests of an existing client, to do so.  For example in a matter which may fall strictly within the field of criminal law the commercial nature of the alleged offence (such as a customs or fisheries offence) will warrant Sol-Law acting for the client.  Sol-Law will also undertake trade disputes and personal injuries litigation on behalf of existing commercial clients.
