Construction

At LG we recognise that the construction industry is more heavily regulated today than ever before.

We know our way around and understand how best to guide you past the pitfalls.  Our lawyers understand the points that really matter to you. 

Our teams in London and the Middle East have experience in a wide range of construction activities and can offer focused, specialist advice – avoiding the learning curve that often slows things up and adds cost.

We act for a broad range of clients both in the UK and internationally. 

We can advise you on...

• Project finance, funding and development agreements
• Advising on tender processes and procurement methods
• Construction insurance, including project insurance, latent defects insurance, professional indemnity and contractors' all risk insurance
• Amendments to standard form building contracts, appointment documents, warranties and ancillary contracts; drafting bespoke documents tailored to the specific needs of a business or a project
• Advising on international projects, including development projects, process plants and infrastructure schemes
• Troubleshooting during the project period to ensure the minimum of disruption from disputes and other problems
• Health & safety matters
• Where disputes cannot be resolved by negotiation, using the appropriate dispute resolution methods to solve problems and achieve a satisfactory result and
• Insolvency issues.

Don't just take our word for it...
