International DisputeResolution Services
Expertise

Experience that resolves disputes.

Three decades resolving the most complex commercial, construction and infrastructure disputes — as arbitrator, mediator, expert determiner, adjudicator and expert witness.

01 — Approach

How disputes are resolved.

Every matter is approached the same way, ensuring procedural fairness at every stage. The facts are investigated forensically, the issues are determined on their technical and legal merits, and the dispute is resolved by the most efficient route available — whether commercial arbitration, mediation, expert determination or statutory adjudication.

Questions of quantum, delay and technical performance are analysed rigorously and presented with clarity, giving tribunals and parties the reasoned, independent opinion that a serious matter requires.
