Major industry players continue to rely on our expertise, commercial and technical competence in procurement strategy, contract structures and negotiation of construction contracts, PFI/PPP project agreements, development funding arrangements, risk management advice and the resolution of disputes via arbitration, mediation, international arbitration, litigation and other forms of dispute resolution to deliver complex, high-profile projects relating to commercial property, roads and bridges, sports stadia, hotels, hospitals, process/manufacturing facilities, energy, education and other infrastructure.

Construction and engineering projects inevitably involve a number of risks, requiring the allocation of those risks and the negotiation of suitable contractual terms for their management. Our lawyers understand these risks and the methods for allocating and managing them. They also understand the significance of the construction arrangements within the wider project and are skilled in ensuring the appropriate allocation of construction risks to the party or parties best placed to manage those risks, so ensuring that the relevant project is bankable from a construction risk perspective. These skills also make us unique in identifying and quantifying risks for lenders to projects who require an analytical approach to their project risk diligence.
