What Clients Say…
“Paul provided valueable expertise on a difficult project during the past 12 months, i’m sure we will work together again in the future.”
“Having worked with Paul for some time, I have found that he adopts a thoroughly professional approach to any assignment. Through his detailed analysis and considered conclusions he brings a tailored approach to each project, which is appreciated by, and adds value to, the stakeholders.”
“I sat on a Referee Panel with Paul Winfield on a complex construction dispute. He was a pleasure to work with. He is very pleasant, respectful, thoughtful, diligent and has expertise in construction disputes. I got along with him splendidly. We have since kept in touch and confer on construction dispute matters from time to time. I highly recommend Paul as a construction arbitrator / adjudicator.”
“Paul is a vastly experienced and exceptionally knowledgeable claims and contract specialist whom I had the pleasure of working alongside during my time on the Muscat Airport Redevelopment Project. From a professional standpoint, working with Paul was perhaps the most rewarding period of my career to date. Paul’s enthusiasm for his work is infectious, and his ability to communicate information unequivocally and in a captivating manner makes Paul the ideal mentor. Furthermore, Paul’s management skills are second to none. He is a great motivator of those reporting to him, and his ethics and integrity make him a valuable asset to his peers and superiors alike. If I were to have one criticism of Paul, it would be his choice of Football team, but you can’t have everything.”
"I share - without hesitation - that Mr. Winfield's work surpasses some of the most prominent arbitrators in the Canadian construction law community. His ability to absorb highly complex issues and materials, cut through complexity, apply industry insight, and deliver decisions that resonate beyond the dispute itself is rare. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Winfield as an adjudicator in any construction-related matter."

Paul consistently showed his meticulous professionalism with sound legal attributes. Having a flexible friendly personality, he always showed generosity and kindness towards clients, friends and colleagues.”
“It’s very rare to come across people with the sheer dedication, passion and commitment Paul shows towards helping his clients. In all my dealings with Paul, I never failed to be impressed by his desire (and ability) to provide a top quality service.”
“I really like using you as an adjudicator, I appreciate your organization of the process. I find you do a good job balancing the reality of the rush of adjudication while not letting it drag on forever. I find you do a good job of listening to the parties and keeping us on track. You find a way to make adjudication straightforward as possible within the boundaries of the process. This helps the client understand what’s happening and why they’ve won or lost.
All in all, I have recommended you to many friends in the profession and will keep suggesting you in future adjudications.
“Paul is a very hard-working, committed individual who keeps his focus on the Client’s goal at all times. I have worked with Paul several times in the past five years and have never failed to be impressed by his professional approach, whatever the task.”
“I have employed the services of Paul on numerous occasions over the past decade on major capital investment projects including cross country gas transmission pipeline projects and associated installations, LNG pipelines and major infrastructure enhancement projects. In his capacity as Senior Quantity Surveyor, Commercial Manager, Claims Consultant and Dispute Resolution he is an excellent performer that has never let me down.
Paul is professionally qualified, highly experienced throughout the civil engineering and construction industries and is very practical in his approach and application to get the job done to exceptional standards.”
