Dispute Advisory and Claim Support
Hunt Building Surveying strives to help clients avoid and resolve disputes. However, should a dispute arise, or is likely to arise, our professional and experienced team are able to advise our clients, helping them to avoid long and costly resolution processes.
Advantages of Independent Dispute Advice
Independent experts can offer an unbiased evaluation of the situation giving objective analysis as well as recommendations on ways to resolve the dispute.

The areas of focus can be broadly split into:
