Construction and development

Our expert team of lawyers offer technical expertise, sound legal advice and sector knowledge to our construction and development clients.

Our knowledge of the business issues that can affect you and the commercial pressures you are under enable us to provide pragmatic and timely advice to our clients in the construction industry. Advising across both the public and private sectors, we assist developers, contractors, professionals, sub contractors and suppliers. Our range of skills enables us to advise you at every stage from contract to completion.

We can advise you on all of the related areas of law that you will need to consider. For pure construction advice our contentious work covers the full range: proceedings in the Technology and Construction Court, arbitration, adjudication and alternative dispute resolution. Our complete non-contentious service includes advising on and drafting building and engineering contracts, collateral warranties, bonds, guarantees and professional appointments.

Working alongside our construction team are our commercial property, development, social housing, licensing, planning, environmental and parliamentary specialists offering you a "one stop" service on infrastructure projects and all kinds of property development. For example, the drafting of commercial contracts, the procurement process to put in place for suppliers, and the potential to outsourcing some of the business process.

Currently business immigration is a key issue in the construction industry. We can review employee contracts, deal with disciplinary issues, health and safety regulations and help you prevent professional negligence issues from arising.
