Event description

The Session
In construction, disputes are common but resolving them through Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods can be faster, more cost-effective, and less adversarial than traditional litigation. ADR approaches—negotiation, mediation, expert determination, and arbitration—offer structured pathways for parties to address and resolve conflicts with flexibility and expertise. 

In this presentation, Wayne Black, Architect & Accredited Expert Determiner, will explore various ADR methods and demonstrate how a Dispute Resolution Specialist (as a non-lawyer) can assist in resolving disputes without legal proceedings. By leveraging industry expertise and conflict resolution skills, such specialists provide a valuable alternative to litigation, offering efficient and tailored solutions for construction and architectural conflicts.
