Construction dispute management

Our aim is to provide our clients with effective solutions to problems based on our clients’ commercial interest - not ours or anyone else’s for that matter.

When it comes to Construction Dispute Management, an objective appraisal of your case is fundamental to an effective resolution.

From the outset of any commission of our dispute resolution services, we will provide you with a clear and concise opinion on the strengths and weaknesses of your position.

We will guide you through the options available to resolve the dispute and recommend the method of dispute resolution which will achieve your particular objectives as quickly and as economically as possible, whether via Mediation, Adjudication or Arbitration.
