KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Non-Contentious Business
Non-contentious business refers to legal work carried out by a solicitor that does not involve disputes or litigation before a court.
It includes legal services of a non-litigious nature such as drafting wills, preparing contracts, conveyancing, company formation, probate matters, and advisory work.
Unlike contentious business, non-contentious work does not involve opposing parties engaged in legal proceedings.
The focus of such work is generally preventive, administrative, or transactional rather than adversarial.
Non-contentious legal practice therefore forms a major part of everyday legal services provided by solicitors.
