Liz Hatcher's practice is focused on litigation and arbitration particularly within the energy, resources, and major infrastructure sectors. She has experience with complex, high-value energy and construction disputes.

Liz's recent experience includes claims arising out of the construction of gas and power processing facilities in the Middle East, acting for global engineering and construction firms in high-value construction disputes, as well as advising contractors regarding intricate breach of contract claims.

Liz worked on an EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) contract dispute (circa $1.4b), related to an LNG (liquefied natural gas) project that involved the development of coal seam gas fields and hubs in South East Queensland. The litigation proceedings included issues around delay, disruption, and defective materials.
