Testimonial
"I instructed Ian to provide expert delay analysis when acting for the Employer in an adjudication. Ian was able to turn around a very detailed but concise report within the 7 day period required for a Response. He was equally quick to provide analysis during the course of the adjudication. He had clearly analysed the events which actually caused critical delay to the project, which the Adjudicator ultimately preferred over the Contractor’s hypothetical analysis.
I would have no hesitation in instructing Ian again".
