Our lawyers have an outstanding reputation for their knowledge and experience of construction and engineering law. We understand our clients' businesses (our lawyers have also worked in- house for leading contractors and consultants), and develop long-standing relationships with our clients. We provide a prompt, efficient service, and our advice is clear and commercially useful.
Litigation
We have particular experience of proceedings in the Technology and Construction Court and are familiar with the judges and clerks.
We have had the conduct of proceedings ranging from the enforcement of an adjudicator's decision, obtaining interlocutory injunctions through to taking complex, multi-party, high value cases to trial.
Over the course of several years, our lawyers have developed excellent relationships with leading members of the Technology and Construction Bar and with the best experts in construction and engineering matters.
We also advise and represent clients in general commercial litigation matters that are not specific to construction and engineering projects, such as insurance, professional negligence and insolvency matters.
Reported cases include: CIB Properties Ltd v Birse Construction Ltd; Ledwood v Kier; Richard Roberts Holdings Ltd v Douglas Smith Stimson Partnership; Team Services plc v Kier Management and Design Ltd.
