introduction

Construction and engineering projects by their nature, give rise to a complex set of contractual arrangements and relationships. Arguably these industries have more “standard” forms of contract than any other, which is why ensuring the right legal advice and that robust contract documents are in place is essential to the success of a construction or engineering project. Our team will help you set clear project expectations, allocate risk, anticipate situations and record clearly what has been agreed. The wrong contractual arrangements will mean that disputes are much more likely to occur, if only because expectations are misaligned and no solution is set down.

 

We work for a wide range of public and private sector organisations of different sizes including those procuring and funding works, contractors, consultants and insurers, for example:

 

  • Institutions, Local Authorities and NHS Trusts
  • Developers, employers and funders
  • RSLs
