Justin Fellows

Director, 53 Quantum | Quantum Expert

Justin Fellows is a leading Quantum Expert and dispute resolution specialist with a 40-year career in the construction industry, underpinned by 25 years of post-chartered expertise.

His extensive portfolio spans the construction, infrastructure, rail, M&E, power, nuclear, and utilities sectors. As Director of 53 Quantum, Justin provides strategic counsel to main contractors, specialist subcontractors, employers, and legal teams, navigating issues that range from localised UK construction matters to highly complex international disputes with values exceeding £1 billion.

Uniquely positioned through his hands-on origins, Justin began his career in 1986 as an apprentice bricklayer, earning City & Guilds craft qualifications. This grounded, on-site foundation informs his technical command today. Building his career from the ground up, he advanced to a trainee mechanical quantity surveyor on fire-prevention systems before contributing to landmark infrastructure projects, including the Jubilee Line Extension. His professional development was further shaped by invaluable mentorship working under the direction of the eminent quantum expert at Davis Langdon in 2009.
Today, Justin is widely recognised for his authoritative command of complex cost analysis, cost engineering, contract administration, loss and expense evaluations, and forensic cost auditing. He possesses deep practical experience across all major contract forms, including NEC, JCT, FIDIC, ICE, and Network Rail contracts, alongside bespoke commercial arrangements. A pioneer in integrating modern business intelligence and auditable automated data processes into dispute resolution, Justin has spent over a decade refining techniques in big-data manipulation, advanced financial modelling, and specialised data visualisation. This cutting-edge expertise enables him to distil multi-layered, often convoluted cost data into clear, objective insights capable of withstanding intense scrutiny and cross-examination in formal proceedings. His substantial dispute experience encompasses Adjudication, Arbitration, and Litigation. Justin frequently acts as an independent quantum assessor, manages high-volume adjudication proceedings for subcontractors, and serves as a Quantum Expert on high-stakes disputes involving major stadium developments, nuclear facilities, oil and gas plants, waste-to-energy assets, and large-scale commercial and residential projects. Justin holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Construction Law and Arbitration from King’s College London. He is a Chartered Builder (MCIOB) and a Member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (MCIArb). Dedicated to advancing the profession, Justin was appointed Part-Time Lecturer in Forensic Quantum Analysis at the College of Contract Management in 2025. His published research on adjudicators’ jurisdiction is held in the King’s College Centre of Construction Law Library. Ultimately, Justin is valued for his unique synthesis of traditional quantity surveying, contractual expertise, and forensic data analysis, which establishes him as a highly trusted adviser in commercial management and high-value contentious matters.
