01 The challenge

A key supplier withheld deliveries and claimed unpaid fees just as Northstar committed to three new plants. Contract terms, payment history and expansion timelines sat in separate files, and leadership could not see how a prolonged dispute would affect the plan.

02 Our approach

A three-stage engagement that moved from a clear case assessment to a settlement the board could approve and rely on.

01

01

Assess the dispute

Reviewed the contract, delivery records and payment history to build a clear picture of each side’s claims and exposure.

02

02

Test the strategy

Ran twelve scenarios on cost, timing and outcome to find where litigation would help and where settlement made more sense.

03

03

Negotiate the resolution

Led mediation to a settlement with phased deliveries, clear payment triggers and a revised supply agreement.

03 The results

Northstar secured uninterrupted supply, settled on favorable terms without a trial and now uses a standard supplier contract with clear dispute procedures.

What types of matters do you handle?

We advise businesses, founders and executives on corporate transactions, commercial litigation, employment and regulatory matters. Most clients come to us facing a significant decision or dispute that affects their company’s future.
