With adjudication now arguably the most common tool for resolving problems in the construction and engineering industry, HK have successfully handled well over 200 adjudications on behalf of both claimants and respondents. These adjudications range in scope from straightforward recovery of outstanding payments, through to the presentation and defence of extremely complex claims - and in value from thousands to millions of pounds. Typically, our input has covered:

  • Notice of Adjudication
  • Referral Notice
  • Response
  • Reply
  • Enforcing awards through the Courts
  • Advising on the tactics and strategy of the adjudication process
  • Project managing the exercise with the client and other professionals


Our services include:

  • Proforma Adjudication - we provide proformas to help clients identify and collate the information necessary to achieve low cost, effective adjudication results.
  • Adjudication Claims - we can prepare, present and represent you in bringing adjudication claims.
  • Adjudication Responses - if you are faced with an adjudication, you'll find us very experienced and effective at identifying the key issues quickly and then preparing your responses within the prescribed timescales.
  • Adjudication Information - We publish bulletins and organise seminars and workshops to keep our clients right up-to-date with developments in adjudication.


The nature of the adjudications have involved us being on both sides of the fence in claims involving:

  • Extensions of time
  • Loss and expense
  • Global claims
  • Loss of productivity
  • Variations
  • Interim and final payments
  • Retention
  • Wrongful withholding
  • Declarations concerning contract formation
