Construction

Our non-contentious construction team is amongst the most highly regarded in the region . Our team comprises lawyers who specialise solely in construction and O & M matters .
We advise in relation to construction matters across the power , oil and gas , infrastructure and real estate sectors . Our clients include governments , lenders , developers , contractors and consultants . We advise many of our clients solely in relation to their construction needs . However , we regularly form part of a multi-disciplinary ( and often cross-office ) team to deliver comprehensive legal advice in relation to complex energy and infrastructure projects .
Our construction team is recognised for its excellence by a number of global legal and business publications and organisations , including The Legal 500 EMEA ( 2022 ). Tom Swarbrick is cited by The Legal 500 UK as a ‘ Next Generation Lawyer ’ with clients saying he is a “ extremely reliable and solution oriented ” with a “ strong customer focus and great work ethic .” In 2020 , he was recognised by Law360 as a ‘ Rising Star ’ in construction law . The Legal 500 UK notes Tracy London offers “ unparalleled knowledge and deep sector specific expertise in energy projects , particularly renewable energy .”
