Dispute Avoidance & Dispute Resolution

We can assist with:

  • drafting dispute mechanism clauses for major/long term contracts
  • setting up of mediation and other  ADR  procedures
  • tactics and strategy in  the handling of contractual disputes

Giles Dixon has been involved with CEDR  (the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution), the leading organisation in the UK for the resolution of disputes using ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) techniques since its inception in 1991 and served as a non-executive director for three years from 1999-2002.

Giles  is a qualified CEDR mediator and is available to provide mediation services.

He drafted the original Adjudication Rules for CEDR. He has also recently prepared for CEDR or a multiple dispute mechanism schedule for use in PFI and other long term contracts which is currently being promoted to UK Government Departments. This can be viewed and downloaded from CEDR's website at: http://www.cedr.co.uk/library/documents/drpforpfi.pdf

We also offer our services as a Project Adviser, assisting the parties to a contract in resolving difficulties without recourse to legal proceedings.
