Approach

JDA combines contractor side delivery experience with independent expert analysis. The work is grounded in how projects are actually delivered, how costs are incurred and how commercial positions are developed and challenged in practice.


This is not theoretical analysis. It is informed by over two decades working within the organisations that deliver and dispute complex projects.


Opinions are clear, commercially grounded and prepared to withstand scrutiny in formal proceedings. Law firms appoint James where the analysis needs to be independent, well supported and capable of being tested.
