- In-Person Executive Workshop
Overview
Major construction and infrastructure disputes are rarely lost in the hearing room. They are often determined much earlier — in contract drafting, risk allocation, and strategic positioning.
This one-day executive workshop is designed to provide senior legal, commercial, and project professionals with a structured and practical understanding of how construction and engineering disputes are framed, argued, and decided in arbitration.
Focusing on real-world EPC exposure, contract architecture, claims strategy, and tribunal reasoning, the programme bridges the critical gap between drafting decisions and arbitral outcomes.

- Risk allocation frameworks in EPC and infrastructure contracts
- Drafting robust and enforceable arbitration clauses
- Managing delay, variation, and disruption claims
- Quantum assessment and expert evidence in technical disputes
- Strategic positioning in high-value arbitration proceedings
- Tribunal approaches in complex engineering matters
