Such niche services include dispute/insolvency driven:
The services we are providing to main contractors, subcontractors and consultants in relation to delays and disruption associated with the Covid 19 pandemic and associated plant, material and labour shortages include the review and interpretation of the relevant contractual provisions to:
Typically our services include brokering or assisting in brokering settlements or intermediate agreements in relation to these issues and any other factors the pandemic brings.
Experience leads us to understand that the ‘best battle is the one you do not have to fight’.
