Construction & Building Disputes

When a building project is undertaken, there can be unexpected consequences in the build for the builder and the owner alike. Disputes can arise in relation to house extensions, refurbishments and a whole host of other build projects.

It is usually common to obtain expert evidence from building and construction experts who are used to preparing reports for dispute resolution purposes. Our aim is to provide a cost effective and efficient solution at what can be a very stressful time for all concerned.

In addition, we also have experience of acting for:

  • Developer (Employers)
  • Main Contractors
  • Sub-Contractors
  • Suppliers

These disputes tend to involve the major forms of standard contract (JCT) and less formal arrangements with the implied terms of the relevant statutes being relied upon.

We have experience of resolving disputes both through specialist Courts such as the Construction and Technology Court including utilization of the Construction and Engineering Pre-Action Protocol, and alternative dispute resolutions methods such as Mediation, Adjudication and Arbitration. With Adjudication time frames demanding a quick response, we are at hand to help you through each step of your dispute through to resolution.
