Disputes can be expensive and time consuming. Independent expertise is crucial for resolving disputes efficiently and fairly – whether through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation.  

BTG’s forensic services team has broad experience in dispute advisory and expert witness services. We provide independent dispute advisory and testimony that withstands cross-examination and regulatory scrutiny – essential to secure timely and fair resolutions. Our expertise spans the full lifecycle of business-related or personal disputes – including contractual disagreements, shareholder disputes, M&A disputes, contentious valuations, and loss of profits claims 

We provide early case assessments and clear, evidence-based reports to inform your dispute strategy from the outset, including quantifying claims and guiding settlement discussions. Where formal proceedings are unavoidable, we act as expert witnesses in UK civil and criminal courts, international arbitration, and tribunal hearings.  We also offer dispute resolution services through arbitration, expert determination, and private independent expert review (PIER). These processes provide efficient, binding, and cost-effective alternatives to lengthy litigation. 
 
Our work is partner led, with three disputes focused partners around the UK. Our partners have extensive experience on a wide range of forensic accounting disciplines across many sectors. Our work is delivered to a high standard at competitive rates. We can also call on wider expertise across the firm including insolvency, corporate finance and property experts, which can be vital in resolving complex dispute matters.
