Our team has extensive knowledge of the construction sector and provides practical and strategic advice with commerciality at the fore, to a wide range of construction and engineering projects on both contentious and non-contentious matters.

Our in-depth knowledge of all major forms of building contracts means we are ideally placed to draft and negotiate the full suite of construction documents for any project of any size. Depending on the circumstances and requirements, we regularly prepare fully considered bespoke drafting and amendments, or an informed review, reporting and drafting proposals for modifications on all construction documentation originated by others.
