In both arbitration
and litigation there is a newly placed emphasis on the parties
attempting to resolve their dispute by mediation and/or conciliation
prior to the implementing of formal dispute resolution processes.
Harris Consulting is experienced in representing clients
in mediation and / or conciliation forums that often lead
to resolution of the dispute.
Examples or recent experience
- Acting in the role of quantum expert Harris Consulting
was an integral part of a local authority client team defending
a claim in arbitration and which the parties agreed to
return to mediation to explore opportunities for settlement
- Acted for a large housing association with their legal
and engineering consultants in the defence of a significant
claim from the main contractor, who was engaged to install
in 5,000 existing dwellings central heating systems. Settlement
was achieved at considerably less than 15% of the sum claimed
