Affordable adjudication fees in New South Wales
ABC DRS have reconfirmed their commitment to providing good value for money adjudication services to the New South Wales building industry with their fixed adjudication fee scheme.

Our fixed fee route gives potential claimants ease of mine with an all-encompassing service at a set price, meaning certainty when engaging the dispute resolution processes of the New South Wales security of payment legislation.
This service includes:
- Handling of the application and the appointment of a competent adjudicator
- The time and cost of the adjudicator.
- The release and publishing of the adjudication decision.
- The issuing of an adjudication certificate should one be required.
The cost of using fixed fee adjudication is based on the value of the payment claim in dispute and shown in the table below.
