Applications and Responses for Adjudication

Every day, individuals and organisations enter into contracts for building and construction work. Sometimes disputes arise over payment. The Construction Contracts Act 2004 provides a rapid adjudication process to resolve these disputes, whether they are written or oral contracts.

The Act allows for the appointment of an adjudicator and sets strict time limits on the process so that decisions can be made quickly and payment is not held up. Adjudicators are a registered trained professionals who are experienced in construction contract administration and dispute resolution. Where a claim has been lodged, parties to a contract may agree on a registered Adjudicator who can then review the issue and expedite payment.

CCS can assist you writing your application or response to an adjudication application, within the time bars specified, compile the relevant supporting documentation, and submit the application on your behalf.
