The 'partner-led' team at Acuity Law provides a 'commercial service' to local, UK-wide and international corporates across a broad swathe of commercial litigation, ranging from shareholder and commercial contract disputes to public procurement and construction matters. Clients also benefit from access to a range of useful internal products, including Litigation Funding Assist, which affords clients the opportunity to achieve favourable rates via the firm's arrangements with various litigation funders. Swansea-based partner Hugh Hitchcock brings a high degree of commerciality to the table as a result of his vast experience handling both corporate and media-related disputes and is noted for his 'practical, pragmatic and pugnacious' approach. 'Brilliant in the detail and strategy', Cardiff-based Aisha Wardell co-heads the team alongside Hitchcock and is noted for her 'calm and considered approach', including in the context of arbitration proceedings.
