I advise a wide range of clients in the construction sector, including Contractors, Sub-Contractors, Consultants, Lawyers, Architects, Engineers, Project Owners, Developers and Financial Institutions.
I provide expert consultancy in construction contracts, claims management, and dispute resolution, grounded in a strong understanding of the technical and commercial complexities of the built environment. My approach emphasises early risk mitigation through clearly defined, fair, reasonable and balanced contract conditions—because effective dispute avoidance starts long before conflict arises.
Construction disputes often stem from vague or poorly substantiated claims, unclear contract documents, non-compliance with obligations, or late-stage scope changes. When disputes do occur, I support clients with strategic, private resolution through arbitration, adjudication, or mediation, helping to protect both project outcomes and business relationships.
