Two successful adjudication decisions enforced in the High Court

Our valued client recently received confirmation that both of its construction adjudication enforcement applications had been granted judgement in the Technology and Construction Court (TCC) in Manchester.

Having successfully represented our client (a subcontractor) in two sets of adjudication proceedings following a main contractor's failure to pay monies to it. Our client was forced to refer matters to the Technology and Construction Court to enforce those decisions. Using the fast-track enforcement process provided by the TCC those matters have been resolved in weeks.  

As the party representative in the two sets of adjudication proceedings, we were able to use the principles set out in Octoesse LLP v Trak Special Projects Ltd [2016] EWHC 3180 (TCC) (15 December 2016) to enable our client to recover the majority of our costs in the enforcement processes without the need to engage a solicitor, saving it both time and cost.

If you have a construction-related dispute, over the value of a payment notice, a pay less notice or something else, it pays to be proactive. Do not hesitate to contact us for an initial consultation.

It looks like our client's directors will be off to the beach shortly!
