At Riakos Consulting, I bring over two decades of experience in construction law, dispute resolution, and strategic advisory — but what clients value most is the way I work with them.

I sit down with leadership teams to understand priorities, agree on a clear strategy, and then stay close through implementation to make sure what’s decided in the boardroom actually delivers results on the ground.

Too often, project outcomes are constrained by rigid company policies rather than sound commercial judgment. That’s where our Strategic Business Advisory service makes the difference — helping you navigate internal constraints, balance risk with opportunity, and achieve the same or better outcomes than you’d expect from larger firms, with the personal accountability only a principal-led consultancy can offer.

You may have noticed the maritime theme throughout this site. That’s no accident — many of the principles underpinning modern construction dispute resolution trace back to medieval maritime codes that governed trade across continents. At Riakos Consulting, we know that nothing is new under the sun. We’ve seen the same patterns repeat over decades, and we use that experience to help you avoid familiar pitfalls and achieve the strongest possible outcome — with no one working harder to protect your position.
