Property: Construction Our specialist construction team offers a unique legal resource for our clients including developers, contractors, construction and engineering companies and other construction industry professionals.
We have in-depth technical knowledge of all standard and bespoke construction contracts, payment procedures, warranties, performance and other bonds and guarantees. Our team will provide clear advice on procurement strategies and minimising exposure to subsequent dispute. We have first-hand knowledge of all the main-stream methods for resolving Construction industry disputes and an in-depth understanding of the processes and benefits.
Adjudication in particular is a major benefit for the industry. Our success in this field comes from an extensive understanding of the process from all its perspectives, claimant, defendant and Adjudicator, combined with a detailed knowledge of construction law. We monitor all decisions affecting adjudication as well as the many construction decisions produced by the Court, producing client summaries in cases with significant commercial impact.
Arbitration continues to be the favoured route for achieving a clear resolution in Construction disputes and our team has a wealth of experience and understanding of this niche process. Our Construction Team are regular participants in Construction Litigation in the Technology and Construction Court both locally and in London.
We have insolvency expertise and frequently act for Liquidators and Receivers both directly and through their Cost Recovery consultants.
Quality Assurance issues on new-build properties are often a major head-ache for both developers and house-owners. Our team has the technical knowledge to appraise the issues quickly and the skills in negotiation, mediation and, if necessary, in litigation to contain the problems, moving towards an early and cost-effective resolution.
