About Our Real Estate & Construction Disputes

Disputes on real estate and construction projects rarely come out of nowhere. They build up through unresolved variations, missed notices, and claims that were never properly recorded, then surface as full-blown conflicts once the relationship between the parties has already broken down. This programme works backward from that point: understanding how disputes actually arise, how to build and substantiate a claim properly, and what happens once a dispute moves into formal resolution.

The first two days ground participants in the causes of disputes and the mechanics of construction claims, from variations and extensions of time to delay, disruption, and payment disputes. The middle of the programme shifts to dispute resolution itself, comparing negotiation, mediation, and arbitration, before spending two full days inside the arbitration process, including a mock arbitration exercise. The programme closes with settlement strategy, quantum assessment, and a final case study that runs the whole process end to end.

By the end of the five days, participants will be able to spot a claim forming early, build and substantiate it properly, and navigate the dispute resolution process with a much clearer sense of strategy and risk.

Enrol now to protect your projects, strengthen your claims and resolve disputes with confidence.
