In this second episode on alternative dispute resolution (ADR), associates from Collyer Bristow’s Commercial Disputes and Construction teams explore some of the less familiar but highly effective methods of resolving disputes.

Associates, Abbie Coleman and Tami Davis discuss expert determination and neutral evaluation, explaining when these processes are most suitable, whether decisions are binding, and how they can help parties manage cost, risk and strategy. They are joined by Associate, Jack Swayne, from the Construction team, who provides a practical overview of adjudication — a statutory, fast-paced process central to resolving construction disputes and maintaining cash flow.

This episode offers a practical introduction to alternative ADR options and considers how they can be used to resolve disputes efficiently or narrow issues before litigation.
