We address owner, contractor and consultant claims according to their contractual relationships, connecting alleged breaches to work, programmes, notices and responsibilities.

We support contractors and owners in preparing claims and defences, negotiating settlements and pursuing litigation or arbitration. We distinguish the requirements of public procurement from private project terms.

Frequently asked questions

Before requesting construction disputes advice.

Where should a construction dispute review begin?

Start with the complete contract and a dated project record. Separate payment, time, variation, defects and termination issues. Match each claim to instructions, notices, certificates and performance evidence before combining them into a dispute strategy.

Can a delay claim succeed without programme records?

Reliable programme and contemporaneous records are often important. The contract, causation evidence, actual progress, notices, and available expert analysis must be assessed.

Should disputed work continue?

That depends on the contract, safety, payment, instructions, suspension rights, termination risk, and consequences of stopping. Advice should be obtained before unilateral action.

How are fees set?

By the question, documents, urgency and deliverable. We confirm scope and fees before work; additional work is agreed separately.

How is my information handled?

Confidentially under professional and privacy obligations, subject to legally required or permitted disclosures. Agree the secure handling method before sharing originals or highly sensitive information.

Does advice include representation?

Representation begins with an agreed engagement covering the responsible lawyer, forum, work and fees. Filing, appearances, notarisation and negotiation are included when agreed. Outcomes depend on the facts, evidence, applicable law and decisions of the competent authority.
