Services in Adjudication

Adjudication under the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 Part II and the Scheme for Construction Contracts Regulation 1998 has changed the landscape of dispute resolution in the UK construction industry.  It provides a truly rapid resolution of disputes and addresses the real problems of the parties.

Full knowledge of Adjudication Law is essential.  The ability to provide immediate practical application of Construction Law is vital to success.  We provide such a service together with realistic assessments of the likelihood of success allied with an understanding of standard forms and Adjudication Rules.  The Service includes different tiered services which can be tailored to the issue and the extent of preparation you wish to carry out yourself:

1. Examination of the merits of the case based on Construction Law and Adjudication Law;
2. Full Preparation of Notices or Responses including the preparation and presentation of evidence for valuation, delay and disruption, extension of time and issues of additional costs and termination;
   
3. Legal Preparation of Notices or Responses and Review of the evidence you have prepared;
4. Review of Notices or Responses and the evidence you have prepared and advising of necessary amendments;
5. Communications with the Adjudicator on procedural issues;
6. Representation of the parties in hearings or in communications.
7. Advice on enforcement issues.

We have represented parties in numerous Adjudications and Daniel Atkinson has acted as Adjudicator on diverse disputes.  He lectures and writes extensively on Adjudication. (see Track Record - Adjudication)
