James Pickavance is a partner in the construction and engineering practice of Eversheds LLP, specialising in dispute resolution. He has experience of all forms of dispute resolution, in particular contractual and statutory adjudication, domestic and international arbitration, expert determination, mediation and litigation, and advises public bodies, governments, international corporations and private clients on domestic and international, single or multi-jurisdictional disputes across a range of industry sectors in over 20 jurisdictions.
From the foreword
Part 1 of this book, whilst fully supported by references to decided cases, is very much directed towards the practitioner who has to advise his or her client on a construction dispute and then conduct or defend proceedings brought by way of adjudication. To this end it provides a clear route map together with helpful checklists at the conclusion of each chapter. It is this different approach that I think readers will find so helpful. The guidance in relation to insolvency and administration is particularly valuable. As an added benefit, there is Part 2 ? which deals with adjudication in other jurisdictions. I know of no other similarly comprehensive guide and it is a fascinating and illuminating source of reference.This book does not set out to be a rival to existing works but to complement them. That is a role that I have no doubt that readers will find that it amply fulfils.
The Hon Mr Justice Edwards-Stuart
Solicitor James Pickavance has really come up to snuff. He has gone for a practical guide to adjudication. Pickavance is a partner at Eversheds: The firm can be proud of the book. He tells the reader what to do and when and how and why.?yes it is a must for the representative lawyers/consultants ? yes for the adjudicators ? yes especially for you contractors. Pickavance?s book style is practical too. I do like his ?In a Nutshell? paragraphs.
Tony Bingham, Building Magazine, 04.12.15
This book certainly lives up to its name ? the reader is navigated through adjudication with each chapter starting with an overview of the subject matter which is then addressed by individual topics initially caught by an ?in a nutshell? paragraph followed by excellent discussion with clear signposting to the relevant case law. It is evident throughout that the focus of this text is on practicality, a key theme which flows throughout the entirety of the book, offering sound advice to parties at all stages of the process ? including before and after the adjudication itself.Finally the book provides a comparison of UK and international statutory regimes ? something no one else has published to date as far as I am aware ? which ensures the subject of statutory adjudication is well and truly covered in one book!The author is to be congratulated on the practical and strategic guidance offered to those involved in the process at various levels? this book certainly delivers ? it will prove a very useful tool.
Janey L. Milligan, Construction Law
? the author is to be commended for producing an interesting, informative and a very detailed analysis of the Adjudication process.There is a comprehensive analysis of various cases, and the author has provided an interesting case index by subject matter, which is extremely helpfulI have no doubt that ? this extensive publication will be of interest to future Adjudicators and party representatives, and it is crammed with helpful commentaries on the practical aspects of Construction Adjudication. It is without doubt, in my view, that this textbook will be an essential addition to the library of the practitioner, and is a very useful reference point, and is also very reasonably priced as well.
Len Bunton, Chartered Institute of Arbitrators
The author has produced a clear and sensible guide to the subject. The guide is thorough and well-researched. The author?s discussions are generally lucid and helpful and he has wisely avoided the temptation to go into too much academic debate. I particularly liked his use of ?nutshell? introductions and shaded ?checklists? at the end of lengthier sections.I warmly recommend this book to the construction industry, adjudicators and lawyers alike. Mr Pickavance clearly has a wise head on his relatively young shoulders and he and his publisher deserve to be congratulated on this achievement: kudos!
