Andrew Orford

Practice Areas

Andrew works closely with his clients in the infrastructure, construction, engineering, energy, and resources sectors to develop and implement strategies to resolve large and complex disputes in a quick and commercial manner. His experience spans all dispute resolution mechanisms across Australia, including litigation, arbitration, and expert determination when necessary.

As a specialist in construction dispute resolution, Andrew leverages the insights gained from his previous senior commercial roles at BHP Billiton, ensuring a dedicated focus on completing projects on time and on budget, while minimising the risk of disputes. This approach is reflected in the diversity of his client base – he acts for government entities, owners/principals, and tier 1 contractors on their major projects throughout Australia.

Clients value Andrew's strong leadership, valuable input, and his ability to communicate a clear and effective strategy from the beginning of their engagement.
