UK Bar

Practice Areas

Lauren’s domestic practice involves advising on private residential work and large commercial projects, including both adjudication and arbitration work. She has most recently been involved in disputes relating to energy and renewable resources, acting as junior and sole counsel in cases arising out of the construction and performance of solar parks and refurbishment of FPSOs. In this context, her special interest in guarantees and bonds, on which she has written a Hudson paper for the Society of Construction Law, a collaborative paper comparing English and Italian law, and a chapter of Hudson’s Building and Engineering Contracts, is often engaged.

Lauren also has experience in handling IT disputes, particularly relating to the use and performance of e-commerce platforms and communication systems.

Her international practice includes acting in arbitrations under the ICC, LCIA, DIAC and HKIAC rules, and she is experienced in dealing with many standard form construction contracts (JCT, FIDIC, NEC3, ICE and LOGIC CRINE).

Lauren was elected to the Society of Construction Law (SCL) Council in 2015, re-elected in 2018 and focuses her efforts on coordinating the SCL’s well-attended advocacy courses, sitting on the SCL Hudson Prize judging panel, and on building relationships with future construction professionals though the SCL’s university liaison and grants sub-committee.
