Band 3

What the Team is Known For

The construction department at Cocking & Co LLP has deep experience handling contentious elements arising from construction and infrastructure projects. The firm's noteworthy litigation capabilities are enhanced by its strength in arbitration proceedings. Its client roster is composed of architects, contractors and public bodies.

Strengths

The firm’s tight focus on construction means the team really understands the day-to-day realities of the sector, and its boutique size lets the solicitors stay closely involved.

Cocking & Co is very attentive to detail, which is helpful in construction cases with a lot of facts.

They are quite pragmatic and look at the matter practically, focusing on the client's benefit. That's a strength of theirs.

Work Highlights

Cocking & Co represented National Petrochemical Industrial Company in a High Court action against an engineering consultant in a dispute concerning an explosion at a petrochemical plant in the Middle East.

Notable practitioners

Ian Cocking is the founding partner of Cocking & Co and a seasoned construction lawyer in his own right who continues to act on behalf of clients in a range of disputes. He is also an accredited mediator and adjudicator.
Dennis Wong is a founding partner at Cocking & Co who has a strong contentious construction practice and is widely known for his activity in the construction sphere. He is an accredited adjudicator but is also active on both domestic and cross-border arbitration matters.
 

He has great commercial awareness and understands the needs of his clients.

 

Dennis is very established and very hands-on.

 

I think the main attribute is that Dennis is extremely hands-on. It doesn't matter if the matter is small or big - he knows all matters in intricate detail.
