One of our chief aims is to support our clients without unnecessarily increasing cost for reducing risk and to add value through a commercial approach allied to an understanding of the practical issues which may arise.

When disputes arise, our contentious team has the experience and industry knowledge that is required to achieve the optimum outcome for you on complex, high value and often multi-jurisdictional disputes and all types of construction claims. Working closely with our non-contentious colleagues, the disputes team will often know the project, the parties and the issues of contention long before any formal dispute arises; and will assist you to avoid formal disputes wherever possible. 

Our lawyers frequently act on disputes and projects across the globe, including disputes under construction contracts, O&M contracts, PFI/PPP agreements, offtake agreements, financing documents and joint venture agreements.
