Advice on the terms of a construction contract worth in excess of £3 million, the purchase of potential development land, surveyors contracts and railway engineering contracts, are just a few examples of the non-contentious matters dealt with successfully by the Construction Law Team.
We also have considerable experience in contentious matters through adjudications, arbitrations or litigation in the Technology and Construction Court (TCC), and also the local County Courts. For example, we successfully dealt with an adjudication of non-payment of the main contractor for building a golf club and the subsequent enforcement of the decision in the TCC.
Clients benefit from the specialist knowledge of the Construction Law Team, which also draws on the skills of legal professionals in commercial property, planning, environmental and company commercial disciplines.
