Commercial law
& Dispute resolution

More than 20 years’ legal experience, and now helping to resolve disputes around Australia.

Adam has developed particular experience serving the construction, technology, and engineering industries. He has negotiated and written contracts for massive projects, presented cases in courts in most Australian jurisdictions, bought and sold businesses, and done many other things besides.

Now, Adam has turned his skills and experience to helping people with non-litigious dispute resolution.

Let Adam help resolve your dispute through:

  • Mediation

  • Pre-action facilitation

  • Arbitration

  • Expert determination

Areas of Practice


It is a reality of commercial law that litigation is unpleasant for clients, even if they succeed. Adam is regularly appointed as an independent mediator or arbitrator to help others reach a successful outcome. While he can (and will, if asked) fight hard for one side in the courtroom, Adam would rather step in between and work with both sides resolve a dispute.

Adam is a member of the mediation panels for the Magistrates Court of SA, the Master Builders Association SA, the Housing Industry Association SA and under the NT Petroleum Regulations.

Adam is accredited as an arbitrator and expert determiner by Resolution Institute. Adam has also been trained in the CINERGY™ method of conflict management coaching.

Construction &
Engineering

 

Builders, civil contractors and engineers are the lifeblood of our economy and the people to whom governments turn whenever that economy needs a boost. We prepare contracts, advise on tenders, or assist with progress claims, all with an eye to avoiding or resolving disputes—a one-stop-shop for construction and engineering legal issues for owners, developers, contractors and consultants.


Technology &
Intellectual property

 

Technology and innovation need to be encouraged and protected. We prepare licences and distribution agreements and software-as-a-service (SaaS) contracts. We also advise on how to protect rights or resolve disputes about patents, trade marks and designs.


Insurance &
Risk management

 

Commercial life comes with a hefty dose of commercial risk. Commercial risks are managed by allocating the risk to others better able to deal with, managing the risks you need to take on, and insuring against the risks you can’t avoid. We can advise on the risks, help deal with insurers, and even defend professionals against claims, while also focussing on minimising cost and business disruption.
