Adjudication Representation
Win the paper war cleanly, quickly, and cost‑sensibly. I act for Referring or Responding Parties in UK construction adjudications, managing the 28-day timetable end-to-end and keeping a settlement track open so you recover value quickly.

What I Do
-
Day‑0 Readiness (fast triage)
Clarify Dispute Crystallisation, Scope the dispute, run jurisdiction checks, confirm the ANB (RICS / CIArb / TeCSA), set the timetable, and define the evidence plan (contract data, notices, valuations, programmes, contemporaneous records). -
Full Representation (either side)
Draft and serve Notice of Adjudication and Referral (or Response/Reply), curate the bundle, brief experts proportionately, and handle directions, meetings, and adjudicator queries. -
Decision → Cash
Convert the decision into a payment: settlement terms, enforcement strategy, interest calculation, and clean close-out.

The 28‑day timetable
-
Day 0 - Notice of Adjudication served (precise dispute definition).
-
Within 7 days - Adjudicator appointed; Referral served (case set out in full with exhibits).
-
Responses & Replies - Managed to directions; concise, evidence‑led.
-
Decision - Typically 28 days from Referral (extensions by consent).
-
Post‑decision - Payment, settlement or enforcement steps executed immediately.
I plan the process day by day so nothing slips.
