1) Management of Compensation Claims

We possess deep expertise in the management of compensation claims. With our many years of experience in handling large-scale compensation claims, we ensure the smooth progression of construction projects.

2) Engineering Procurement & Construction Contracts

EPC contracts, and their related EPIC and EPCC forms, are very often highly complex in the context of technically challenging projects. We have the experience needed to identify and address the legal issues and risks arising in such contracts. Our EPC experience includes;

• • Detailed negotiation and drafting of bespoke and standard form EPC contracts (FIDIC, JCT, ICE, NEC) in the procurement of major projects,
  • Commercial and legal management of the issues and risks arising from performance of the EPC contract,
  • All forms of ADR and formal dispute resolution proceedings, with particular expertise in international arbitration, and the complex matters which typically arise in the context of an EPC based Project.

3)Dispute resolution

We believe that every dispute is unique.  We work with our clients to develop appropriate dispute resolution plans that reflect our clients’ long and short-term aims. We actively promote alternative dispute resolution and with many years of commercial negotiation and mediation experience, we aim to achieve successful and prompt results as an alternative to formal litigation processes.
