Construction disputes
The construction industry has a wide armoury of procedures at its disposal to resolve disputes and Hewitsons' construction law team has a high reputation of advising clients across the whole sector. Whatever the dispute, we will guide parties through the chosen process and assist them to meet their objectives based on a pragmatic and commercial approach.
Adjudications have proved to be a highly favoured procedure for resolving construction disputes in recent times and the team has gained substantial expertise in advising both claimants and respondents on a myriad of claims from multi-million pound final account claims to minor defects. As well as adjudications, the team has substantial experience of court proceedings - especially the Technology and Construction Court - and arbitrations. It has particular expertise in enforcement issues relating to adjudication awards.
Alternative Dispute Resolution techniques have also become a major tactical consideration in achieving the cost effective and prompt settlement of disputes and the construction law team has direct experience of mediation and other alternative dispute resolution processes.
Our clients demand value from the construction law services we provide. Rest assured that when you work with Hewitsons, we'll aim to secure your interests without losing sight of the commercial realities.
