construction and engineering dispute resolution

Our experienced team advises clients on all their formal dispute resolution needs within the increasingly complex construction and engineering market.

Always in tune with the industry’s increasingly complex framework of legislation, procurement systems and contractual obligations, we advise a wide range of clients drawn from both public and private sectors. 

Acting for a large number of blue-chip and multinational organisations, our dedicated team of expert lawyers excels in the education, highways, housing and healthcare sectors but is also active in a wide range of other industry areas.

We have consistently set the pace in operational PFI / PPP work over a number of years, providing our lawyers with invaluable experience that gives us unrivalled expertise in what has become a very challenging market.  We also have a strong track record in the groundbreaking Building Schools for the Future (BSF) after having advised on numerous high-profile BSF schemes across the UK.

Whenever defects or claims occur, we will quickly provide a comprehensive, practical and cost effective response that could include negotiation, Alternative Dispute Resolution (including mediation), adjudication, arbitration or litigation. At every stage, we will make sure that ultimate control remains firmly in your hands.

Our practice also covers operational risk management and FM work and we are constantly advising all levels of the supply chain.

We always take the time to appreciate all the varied factors that can influence clients’ decision-making and are constantly hunting down top-class commercial solutions to the problems they face.
