What the Team is Known For

Weightmans assists large insurers and their insureds with a range of claims relating to the construction sector, with regular work for surveyors, architects and engineers. It also regularly represents inspectors, contractors and insurers in claims relating to the cladding industry. In addition, the team litigates in claims relating to solicitors and financial advisers and assists clients through mediation services.

Work Highlights

  • Weightmans acted in the defence of an active Technology and Construction Court claim relating to the partial collapse of an acoustic barrier at a commercial site in London. The loss claimed is multifaceted and worth up to £9 million.
