What can we advise upon?
The Construction and Engineering Team advises on issues arising throughout all stages of a construction/engineering project and in conjunction with other specialist teams, advises from project inception, planning, procurement, project execution, project completion, building regulations, health and safety and the resolution of any disputes. We assist clients in balancing risk and opportunity to achieve their commercial objectives on time and within budget. We co-ordinate our knowledge and experience to work as part of the multi-disciplinary team engaged on each project, with the focus on facilitating the smooth delivery of projects.
We also advise on contentious matters which can arise on a construction project with particular focus on promoting early case assessment and effective dispute resolution strategies for our clients. We advise on all forms of ADR including mediation, conciliation, expert determination, adjudication and arbitration, as well as advising in High Court and Commercial Court proceedings. We also represent clients in health and safety matters, including defending enforcement actions brought by the Health and Safety Authority.
We also advise on JCT contracts, building development, contractor documents, subcontractor documents, architects terms and all other matters .
