Dispute Resolution Support
Rigorous preparation for instructing legal teams.
When disputes arise, instructing law firms need a research, drafting and preparation partner who combines rigorous legal analysis with strategic commercial judgement.
We support instructing solicitors and barristers with the preparation work required for complex commercial disputes, international arbitration, and criminal proceedings. We prepare the documentation, research memoranda, pleadings, and evidence submissions — your instructing firm conducts the proceedings. Our approach is forensic and thorough, ensuring that the legal teams who represent your clients have everything they need to achieve the best possible outcome.
Our approach
Preparation-focused dispute support
Effective dispute support requires more than legal knowledge — it demands strategic thinking, meticulous preparation, and the judgement to identify the arguments that will carry the day. We work alongside instructing legal teams as a discreet research and drafting partner, delivering work product that is ready for immediate deployment within proceedings.
We approach every instruction with a clear framework: rigorous legal assessment, proportionate document preparation, and a research strategy calibrated to the instructing firm's requirements. Whether supporting preparation for emergency interim relief or assembling the documentary foundations of a multi-party arbitration, we bring the same intensity, precision, and commitment to every instruction.
Litigation Support & Case Preparation

Emergency Relief Documentation
Rapid preparation of supporting materials for freezing orders, interim injunctions, and other urgent relief applications.

“During a difficult restructuring affecting 85 employees across two sites, Masl Legal's employment team managed the entire collective consultation process with remarkable precision and sensitivity. They ensured full compliance with TULRCA requirements, structured a voluntary redundancy scheme that achieved a 40% reduction in compulsory redundancies, and negotiated settlement agreements for senior departures. Not a single tribunal claim was brought. Their combination of legal rigour and genuine empathy for all parties involved was exactly what we needed.”

“When we engaged Masl Legal for our corporate restructuring, we were preparing for a seed fundraise while simultaneously integrating an acquisition. Their corporate team structured a group reorganisation that satisfied our incoming investor's requirements, preserved our R&D tax credit eligibility, and resolved legacy shareholder issues through a bespoke drag-along mechanism. The transaction completed on schedule and we closed our £2m seed round three weeks later.”
