Clients who rely on our advice know they have the world’s most experienced claims consultancy on their side. Our proven toolkit of dispute resolution services includes methods developed in-house that have been shaped by this vast experience and proven in different sectors and territories. Our dispute resolution services are comprehensive and include: Adjudication: We are highly experienced in managing adjudication proceedings and act in one of four distinct roles – lead party representatives, advisory capacity, independent expert witnesses, and adjudicators – to ensure that complex legal issues are dealt with effectively during the adjudication. Mediation: We developed a unique alternative form of dispute resolution that blends our technical analysis and mediation services. It is called Project Neutral. Retained jointly, HKA experts objectively assess the matters in dispute and clearly present their findings to both sides. A trained mediator leads our team and our clients’ advisers as they search for solutions and move towards a negotiated settlement. The Project Neutral approach allows both sides, and their counsel, to maintain control of the process and the resulting settlement. Dispute boards and contract adjudication: We provide the full range of expert services needed to secure decisions, including dispute strategy and management of proceedings, as well as hearings; written and oral advocacy of case; expert witness reports; dealing with jurisdictional and other types of challenge; amicable settlement and without prejudice negotiations.

Litigation: As part of our litigation support service we provide strategy and technical advice; prepare issue files and requests for admission; answer and prepare interrogatories; assist in depositions; present claims analysis through expert reports and provide expert witness testimony.
