The best value we can add in this area is advising a strategy to avoid a dispute in the first place. For building projects this strategy will include advice on how to set up the project, the tendering process, a suitable Contract, fair allocation of risk and how to administer the contract. If you have a dispute we can advise the best way forward. Where appropriate we can work with both parties to search for an early resolution before the parties become polarised.
If in the end your dispute goes legal we can support your legal team as a building expert.
We offer training for builders in developing strategies for delivery of defect free projects, as well as training in & development of systems / processes.
David has developed entire integrated management systems for various building companies.
