Understanding what the problem is:

At 3D Risk Ltd, we have found that it is normally the understanding of a problem that causes disputes rather than the cause & effect itself in so much that the problem is unclear and not truly understood by the client.

If a problem is not understood then it is unlikely that the client will understand the full implications of the problem and more often than not, it is unlikely that the client will accept liability for a problem that he does not truly understand.

However, once the cause and effect is understood, it is more likely that a negotiated settlement of liability and cost can be reached amicably, without the need for adjudication, arbitration or other costly and more hostile process.

It is therefore essential that the problem is explained in such a manner as to leave the client in no doubt as to what the problem is, the cause of that problem and ultimately what effect that problem has had on the works.

Apart from enabling us to clarify problems with the client, we are able to:

If all else fails:

If & when all reasonable dialogue is exhausted and a negotiated settlement cannot be reached amicably, without the need for adjudication or arbitration then we can:
