Construction

Today's construction industry is tough, fast-moving and demanding. That's why you need reliable legal advisers who understand the industry. Our construction team has a wealth of experience providing a comprehensive service to the industry. Our team has been immersed in the industry for many years so we understand your practical legal needs.

We take pride in our unique "hands on" approach. Increasingly, our clients prefer to have us as part of their team from the start of a project where our expertise in procurement and contract drafting can prevent disputes arising or escalating.

Our construction team, led by eight highly-rated partners, has worked as advisers to many of the UK’s national developers, housebuilders, main contractors, sub-contractors and professionals. We have also advised local authorities in construction-related matters and financial institutions lending on construction projects.

Our Dubai based team provides a similar high quality service whilst catering to the wide variety of familiar and unique demands of the construction market on projects throughout the Gulf countries and wider Middle East.

Disputes and disruptions are always costly for business never more so than in the current economic climate. We appreciate that this regularly demands immediate and pro-active solutions to unlock complex problems. We therefore look at a range of ways of dealing with the resolution of disputes including negotiation, adjudication, mediation, litigation and arbitration.

Our construction team provides a pro-active, experienced, knowledgeable partner-led service offering real value for money.
