Construction Dispute
Due to an ongoing dispute with a tier one contractor, it became necessary to engage BWL.
From initial consultation, BWL acted with great professionalism and kept our costs to a minimum.
The adjudication ruled in our/BWL's favour and a settlement was reached promptly.
I would highly recommend Richard and the team and will not hesitate to use them in the future.
