Construction

We work with contractors, sub-contractors, developers, UK government, government departments, NHS Trusts and consultants on the transactional and procurement aspects of construction projects.

Our specialist team provides clear and practical advice about procurement options, detailed knowledge of contracts and an industry best practice approach. We apply a straightforward, practical approach to finding economic, business-focused solutions.

We combine wide-ranging experience of large and small projects with legal, construction, engineering and quantity surveying expertise. Many of our lawyers are dual qualified in these disciplines, giving us a rounded experience of the construction industry.

Comprehensive service

We combine these skills with the wider firm resources in banking, real estate, tax and EU law to provide a comprehensive legal offering. Where necessary, we also have a market-leading construction disputes team.

Our team is spread across the UK in Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, London and Manchester, providing us with the localised knowledge necessary to deliver projects efficiently.

We have a specialist and dedicated health construction team that acts for health trusts, foundation trusts and primary care trusts together with private health suppliers, contractors, developers and construction professionals involved in projects in the health sector.

The team deals with construction aspects of PFI, LIFT, lease agreements and development agreements, as well as providing general advice to health estates' departments.
