Why data centre disputes are coming

from Lawyers Weekly Podcast Network Hosted by Momentum Media

The development and operation of data centres in Australia will likely also see the emergence of new litigious proceedings. Here, Kennedys' regional and Australian heads unpack the disputes we are likely to see in this space in years to come. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Kennedys Asia-Pacific regional managing partner James Melvin and Australian managing partner Nicole Wearne about how the disputes that courts and tribunals will hear later this decade are being written into contracts and insurance programs signed now, where the real losses will emerge, phased handover and staged commissioning, fires and batteries, the recovery fight, professional liability, and what will constitute best practice for lawyers moving forward.
