Adjudication
Adjudication is a fast and effective way to resolve disputes without ending up in prolonged commercial litigation.
Many commercial contracts and agreements include adjudication as the preferred means of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). However, even if adjudication is not referred to in a contract or deal, the parties to a commercial dispute can agree to use adjudication.
Our adjudication solicitors will explain the adjudication process and discuss whether adjudication is the best method for your business to resolve its dispute with a third party.
