Construction disputes solicitors

Our construction disputes solicitors advise contractors, developers, consultants, and property owners on resolving complex construction and engineering disputes efficiently and effectively.

We help clients navigate contractual, defect, payment, delay related issues with confidence.

We understand that construction projects can be inherently complex and involve a variety of risks. A wide spectrum of problems and disputes can occur, even in extremely well-managed projects. When issues arise, clients need a legal partner with specialist sector knowledge and a clear understanding of the operating environment and the practical and commercial pressures.

We work across the construction sector with businesses of all types and sizes to anticipate, prevent and resolve a wide range of contract disputes

We act for both claimants and defendants. We combine legal expertise with commercialism to resolve issues quickly and cost-effectively, often without recourse to costly and time-consuming litigation. Where litigation is unavoidable, our lawyers are highly experienced in resolving issues through court proceedings, including Technology and Construction Court litigation and enforcing adjudication decisions in the High Court.

We have extensive and proven experience advising on a wide range of construction disputes successfully.
We work proactively to identify opportunities for early resolution through negotiation, mediation, and other alternative resolution methods.

We take the time to understand your objectives and priorities and tailor our advice and strategy accordingly.
