Construction Disputes

We have experience with all forms of dispute resolution, as well as advising on standard industry form contracts

 

Construction projects so often involve technical and logistical complexity, unforeseen issues and multiple parties. Against that backdrop, even where there has been very careful planning, disputes can commonly arise which, if not dealt with quickly and effectively, can have serious economic consequences for all involved.

Our lawyers understand the commercial and technical aspects of construction contracts so they can get to grips with your project quickly with a view to getting to the true dynamic of the dispute and devising the most effective resolution strategy.

We have experience with all forms of dispute resolution including adjudication, arbitration, litigation, negotiation and mediation as well as advising on the standard industry form contracts such as JCT and NEC.

We advise on a broad range of construction related matters including:

  • Defective design/workmanship/materials

  • Extensions of time/delay & disruption

  • Payment notices

  • Claims for loss and expenses

  • Termination, and liquidated damages

Early expert advice is key to putting the right strategy in place and getting on the front foot in any dispute, giving you the best chance to resolve the situation quickly and effectively.
