Adjudication and other forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution

Construction works can be significantly disrupted by disputes. Disputes cause delays and can ultimately result in a project coming to a complete standstill, potentially causing everyone involved to suffer significant losses. Resolving construction disputes quickly and with certainty is therefore often essential. Adjudication is a bespoke procedure introduced with the aim of doing exactly that, and is a key element of alternative dispute resolution in construction disputes. There are also a number of alternative processes that can be, and are, commonly employed in order to assist parties in resolving their disputes.

How We Can Help

When dealing with construction disputes, focusing on solutions rather than problems is crucial. We advise you on your legal position from the outset, helping you determine the best course of action.

We provide guidance on:

  • Negotiations: We can assist with negotiations, either supporting you behind the scenes or negotiating directly with the other party on your behalf.
  • Mediation: We guide you through the mediation process, from selecting a mediator and preparing necessary documents to representing you on the day.
  • Without Prejudice Meetings: We offer advice and support before and after the meeting, and can attend the meeting to ensure your position is effectively communicated.
  • Adjudication: We manage the adjudication process from start to finish, preparing documents, ensuring compliance with the Adjudicator’s directions and deadlines, and advising on the impact and enforcement of the decision.
  • Arbitration: We assist you through the entire arbitration process, including document preparation, compliance with directions, representation at hearings, and advising on the decision’s impact and enforcement.
