Construction

Comprehensive construction legal support which prioritises risk allocation

The complexities of construction projects means that you need to take a proactive approach to protecting your legal interests.

Our specialist corporate team has extensive experience advising on construction-related projects, catering to developers, contractors, sub-contractors, professional advisers and funders. We provide clear, commercially focused support in a wide range of areas, including tender packages, build contracts, appointment agreements, collateral warranties and guarantee bonds.

Our comprehensive services prioritise risk allocation and include guidance on standard contracts such as JCT, as well as on customised contracts documentation.

We have established an outstanding reputation for resolving construction-related disputes efficiently and cost-effectively, whether through court proceedings or alternative dispute resolution methods like arbitration and adjudication.

By completing a comprehensive assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of each potential route we can identify the most suitable and proportionate legal solution for your specific claim.

To discuss any construction-related matter and find out how we can help, please contact us at our offices in St Albans, Harpenden or Luton.
