Disputes can take you far outside your own professional “comfort zone” and can be time consuming, stressful and confusing.
You need someone to give you no-nonsense, objective advice to lift the fog, give you a clear path to resolution and then help you down that path.
Whether you are looking to jointly appoint an experienced Adjudicator to resolve a dispute, include a named Adjudicator in your Contracts or bring together a skilled Dispute Avoidance Board (DAB), John would be happy to discuss your requirements.
If you are looking for a Consultant to advise on your entitlement under the Contract and to help you secure that entitlement, or looking to appoint a Consultant who can cut through the confusion and stress of a dispute brought against you, John’s clarity and direction will help reduce the strain of dealing with any dispute.
