Construction | UK

East Anglia

Our construction sections cover legal advice provided to a range of industry clients, including both suppliers, such as developers, contractors, engineers and architects, and purchasers employing these types of companies.    Firms are welcome to showcase both non-contentious and contentious matters. Non-contentious work can include contract negotiations and procurement strategy. Contentious matters we look for include claims arising from defects, such as cladding and fire safety disputes, delays and terminated contracts. We also consider development work here. We’re looking for firms and individuals who advise on the construction aspects of these developments, which can include single commercial blocks, as well as multi-building residential developments. This table covers Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. It contains the leading law firms and lawyers in Cambridge, Norwich, Ipswich, Peterborough and elsewhere. Alongside our regional construction tables, we also recognise firms and lawyers in London in four separate ranking tables, focusing on contentious, non-contentious, international arbitration and professional negligence work within the construction space.
