Construction & Engineering

Clients trust us throughout the project lifecycle for commercially focused advice, supported by our deep industry knowledge. We have a strong track record in handling high-stakes disputes, ensuring successful outcomes for complex, large-scale projects.

Additionally, we advise on insurance coverage, defending claims related to construction and engineering projects, including professional indemnity, contractors’ all risks and public liability policies. Through close collaboration with our Finance and Real Estate teams, we adopt an integrated approach to contract review and negotiation, particularly for large-scale local, regional and global projects.

We help clients minimise disputes during project execution through effective risk mitigation strategies and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). Our approach often resolves claims pre-litigation through mediation and expert determination. When litigation is necessary, we leverage our formidable experience to manage disputes related to payments, delays, and contractual issues. Additionally, we leverage our strong industry contacts to engage top consultants, ensuring our clients receive expert support when needed.

Renowned for our litigation capabilities in the sector, we are sought out by clients to advise on complex judicial review proceedings, public procurement matters including bid challenges under the WTO Agreement on Government Procurement, Commissions of Inquiry as well as complex international arbitrations subject to the rules of all the major arbitral institutions, including UNCITRAL, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC) and the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID).
