Construction Disputes - Another Way Forward

Humphries Kirk are pleased to announce that Construction Partner Chris Reeves has recently received the qualification of “Accredited in Adjudication” by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB).

Adjudication is a simple, speedy and inexpensive way of resolving disputes between two parties, which appoints a neutral third party to investigate the issues and make a decision.

Chris said, “I am thrilled to have gained this qualification from the CIOB. It is a seal of approval from one of the construction industries most respected bodies. The role of adjudicator is a natural progression having acted for parties in the process for many years. Having spent the early part of my working life in the industry before the move into legal practice I find that my practical as well as legal experience is invaluable in helping to get to the truth of the matter in dispute”.

The CIOB is one of the forerunners of adjudication in the industry and, along with other professional institutions and the Construction Industry Council, sets criteria in order to establish high standards of competency for their adjudicators.

Chris went on to explain that “Adjudication has many benefits over Court proceedings and being based in this region means that Humphries Kirk can conveniently offer a local independent expert to resolve disputes quickly, cost effectively and to the standard expected by the CIOB”.
