We also support with contract amendments, compliance reviews and strategies for managing building safety disputes and defect claims.
Dispute Strategy and Management
We help you understand your position from the start and work with you to avoid unnecessary cost or disruption. Where disagreements arise, we use mediation, negotiation and early neutral evaluation to secure efficient outcomes, and support cost recovery where possible.
We represent developers, consultants, contractors and subcontractors in Adjudication disputes across major real estate, infrastructure and engineering projects. If a dispute cannot be avoided, we guide you through the Adjudication process with a clear strategy and commercial recommendations.
Our cost estimation supports informed decision-making throughout. We regularly advise on disputes involving payment, defects, delay, disruption, variations and contract interpretation.
