Construction Disputes Solicitor / Lawyer

Costruzione

Il nostro team di esperti in diritto edilizio vanta una vasta esperienza nella consulenza a committenti, appaltatori principali e subappaltatori in merito a una vasta gamma di controversie in materia di edilizia.

Our clients span the whole construction sector, including employers, main/sub-contractors, and construction professionals (such as architects). We are experienced acting in and advising on a multitude of construction disputes arising out of the full spectrum of construction contracts, as well as bespoke written (or oral) agreements. We are adept at handling disputes that range from ‘smash-and-grab’/Final Account adjudications to advising clients in respect of delay claims as well as the heavily contentious area of termination.

We assess each client’s goal and devise a practical, workable strategy that is best suited to achieving the desired result, whether achieved by way of negotiations, mediation, adjudication, or, where appropriate, issuing proceedings in the Technology and Construction Court.
