Risks such as delays, unforeseen additional costs, defects, the solvency of contracting parties and health and safety matters can arise and can result in significant impacts on the success of a project, damage to business relationships and disruption of your ordinary business activities. Should those risks materialise, you will have immediate access to project advisory services which can mitigate the risk of matters proceeding to a formal dispute. If matters cannot be resolved through dialogue and agreement, your disputes can be resolved in a way that suits your needs. Whether that is through dispute avoidance measures (such as mediation), litigation, adjudication, arbitration (national and international), expert determination or other forms of alternative dispute resolution. As part of our overall dispute resolution strategy we can utilise tools such as our Discovery on Demand product that allows the cost-effective and efficient assessment of your case, which are often very document heavy. Various options are available for funding the dispute, and through our litigation funding product, Feasible, we are able to identify and suggest a variety of funding models to ensure that the dispute is funded in the most appropriate way.
