Success through Partnerships
Structured support
Construction and Projects is a specialist service offered by Hugh James aimed at advising the public and private sector during all stages of construction and engineering projects and development work. This includes advising on PPP (Public Private Partnerships), PFI (Private Finance Initiative) and other large capital projects.
Our clients range from developers, funders, public authorities and end-users of building and engineering services, to insurers, consultants, contractors and specialist sub-contractors.
Our core skills as a team include professional guidance and advice on procurement, partnering, drafting documentation and dispute resolution. Whilst we consider the strength of our lawyers as a given, our breadth and depth of skills enables us to assist on the most critical aspects of all
types of construction projects.
Our philosophy is to develop longer term, trusting relationships and invest the time and effort required in order to understand your business so that we can better assist you in achieving your commercial objectives.
Construction and Project Issues
Our advice is centred around five key issues:
- Procurement – Guiding you to the strategy that best meets your needs
- Partnering – A strong legal framework will pull everyone in the right direction
- Drafting – Specific requirements need specific consideration alongside standard forms
- Advice – Ask for a 'Legal Health Check', good old fashioned advice
- Dispute Resolution – If disputes arise, we will advise you on how to achieve an effective and commercial result whether it be through negotiation, a form of alternative dispute resolution such as mediation, litigation or arbitration.
