Mediation in Construction Disputes

Written by

No business survives without its fair share of complications. Some deal with more than others, of course. Some industries face much worse problems too. The construction industry is a good example. Even the smallest hurdles can turn into gargantuan challenges where the construction business is involved. Fortunately, you have options.

One common solution for problems in the construction industry is mediation. This is when the two parties with an issue come together to discuss it and work out a resolution that will benefit all.

As you can imagine, this can be a contentious situation, often a construction expert witness is brought in by one side to help plead their case. Some kind of third party is always a good idea, especially when it’s one both parties can agree too. Having someone or a consulting firm come in that doesn’t have a dog in the fight can often be the missing piece needed to bring a dispute to a peaceful end.

So just because your build starts going south doesn’t mean you don’t have options. It also doesn’t mean you have no choice but to let things get bad. Instead, consider your options for mediation. Not only can your build get back on track, but both parties can walk away happy too.
