Deborah has been part of the team here at DAC Beachcroft LLP since October 2015, having previously worked for private practices in both Newcastle Upon Tyne and Brisbane, Australia and in house for a subsidiary of GDF Suez Group.

Whilst she has extensive experience in drafting amendments and advising clients on a range of industry standard forms (including NEC, JCT, IChemE, ICE, FIDIC and LOGIC), Deborah’s real expertise lies is in construction, engineering and energy disputes.

Deborah has represented clients on extensive claims/disputes dealing with issues such as defects claims, delay disputes, loss and expense and final account disputes in High Court TCC litigation, Arbitration and Adjudication (both statutory and contractual), and has been successful in employing less adversarial methods, resolving disputes through mediation and expert determination. As a result, she has obtained positive outcomes for contractors, sub-contractors, employers, consultants and their insurers alike.
