Adjudication is primarily a domestic vehicle for resolving routine construction disputes around payment and valuation matters, but is not necessarily sector specific.

There are some sectors excluded from UK statutory adjudication, such as elements of nuclear, or oil and gas works.

We see building and infrastructure disputes most often referred to dispute, due to the frequency and size of those disputes.

Arbitration is often reserved for more complex and high value disputes in the engineering and oil & gas sectors, particularly for international projects.

Due to the complexity and size of these disputes, it is essential to structure our team and approach carefully from the outset, to inefficient practices. Carefully managing tasks to meet the timetable whilst keeping Clients apprised on progress is key.

A crucial skill is the extraction and arrangement of large data from Clients and data rooms.

Yes. Our professionals have extensive expertise in litigation, including testifying in the high court (TCC), pre-action protocol procedures, experts meetings and joint statements.

All our professionals have gained their industry experience as time-served construction practitioners, either as quantity surveyors, engineers, or planners, across the construction, engineering and energy sectors.

In our view, there is no substitute to understanding complex disputes, other than hands-on experience of managing those same types of projects from inception through to completion in a live environment.

This ensures our Clients are not paying for our learning, they are benefiting from our existing expertise in those sectors.

Absolutely. We believe in proactive resilience; we don't just win disputes, we engineer solutions that prevent them.

Our Project Advisory team provides commercial management and contract reviews to mitigate risks before they escalate to formal adjudication in construction disputes.
