Carpenter
At Carpenter & Co, our history is integral to our values and we are proud of our origination. The firm was set up in 1924 by Charles Carpenter from his house in Wallington. In 1955 his son Noel qualified as a solicitor and the firm became known as C.E. Carpenter & Son. Noel continued to practise as a solicitor for over 50 years and strived to develop the practice around the local and business community of Wallington and Carshalton, being very committed to, and involved in local community activities.

The firm assumed its current name in 1988 when David Greenfield joined the partnership. Today the firm continues to be actively involved with the local and business community and retains Noel Carpenter's commitment to build strong relationships and provide the highest quality service to our clients. We advocate regular and open communication between all departments within the firm and externally, to ensure our clients receive prompt and bespoke advice.

In all cases, we work hard to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients.
Services
In the dispute resolution team we advise a range of businesses on commercial disputes involving contract law issues such as breach of contract claims and company law issues involving shareholders and directors.
We are also mindful that commercial disputes need commercial resolutions, with costs and on-going business relationships often being key considerations for our clients.
We conduct litigation at all levels from the County Court to the High Court, but we will also actively promote alternative dispute resolution such as mediation, arbitration and expert determination as alternative options to or in conjunction with litigation.
Cash flow is crucial to your business.
Unfortunately, there are many clients who are happy to abuse your good nature and not pay you or pay you late.
Here at Carpenter & Co, we undertake both consumer debt recovery and commercial debt recovery for a range of private and business clients.
The key to effective consumer and commercial debt recovery is knowing the debtor and adopting the most appropriate and cost-effective strategy to achieve the remedy.
We also have a vast experience of taking enforcement action to recover judgment debts such as instructing the High Court Enforcement Officer (HCEO) or the County Court Bailiff to seize and sell the judgment debtor's goods to the value of the debt and the costs of enforcement; obtaining charging orders on property and orders for sale; third party debt orders; and attachment of earnings orders.
We act for employers and employees in relation to a range of employment disputes including unfair and wrongful dismissal, constructive dismissal (which is a form of unfair dismissal), discrimination and employment law matters generally.
We also advise on settlement agreements (formerly known as compromise agreements).
Whether employer or employee it is very important that you get good specialist advice at an early stage and we can provide this.
Both employers and employees need to be aware of employees' rights and employers' obligations in respect thereof.
If the court does not make a possession order at the first hearing (or on the papers) our charges would then be calculated by reference to the amount of time that we spend dealing with your file.
This includes attending on you and others, dealing with papers, sending and receiving letters and emails, telephone calls, travelling to and from Court or other destinations and any other time that we may spend dealing with this matter on your behalf.
You will be given an estimate of the costs for this additional work based on the reasons for not granting a possession order at the first hearing and the subsequent work this will generate.
Renting out your property may seem like an easy source of income, but it can also be a legal minefield.
The best way to avoid this is to take the right legal advice at the start before any agreement is entered into and before the tenant is allowed into occupation of the premises.
We can deal with all areas of Landlord and Tenant Law and we are skilled in settling disagreements and dealing with claims for possession.
