Jessica Casson-Grave

Solicitor

Commercial Dispute Resolution & Avoidance

Jessica joined us in September 2019 as a paralegal in our Lancaster office having earned her first-class Master of Law degree from the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan). After completing her training at a well-established Lancaster firm, Jessica qualified into Harrison Drury’s Commercial Dispute Resolution & Avoidance department in April 2022.

Coming to law later in life, Jessica has worked in a number of local businesses, from owner-run SMEs to market-leading international corporations, which gives her an understanding of the different challenges faced by our diverse range of clients.

Although often dealing with complex and technical legal issues, Jessica favours plain English in her communications, tailoring her advice to her clients.

While she sits in the Commercial Disputes team, Jessica acts in a wide range of disputes for commercial and individual clients. Jessica has previously acted for agricultural clients in contract disputes concerning defective machinery, probate, and partnership and shareholder disputes. Jessica has advised in complex, technical areas such as electrical safety certification and is always prepared to do the research to understand the finer detail of the subject matter in order to advise effectively on the dispute.

Jessica’s areas of practice include:

Contractual disputes, both business to business and consumer
Debt recovery, charging orders on property
Shareholder and partnership disputes
Contentious probate and disputes arising out of wills and estates
Disputes concerning land and property
Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution
Costs

Outside of work you can find me…

Outside of work, Jessica enjoys spending time with her family, reading, walking and picnicking. She is also partial to a Netflix binge.

Thanks for your help with this which clearly pushed this along to this solution, I can’t tell you how much I am so grateful and relieved.
