Our Experience

    • Acting on behalf of a Joint Venture Company with a £350m property portfolio on various matters including in respect of defective works carried out by contractors on multi-level carpark decking at a shopping centre. We achieved a speedy cost effective resolution by way of adjudication and were awarded all of the sums claimed in full. The client received those sums in 7 days.
    • Acting on behalf of a football club in a claim against a firm of contractors for the substandard design and installation of a FIFA 2* football pitch. The substandard pitch led to serious drainage and levelling issues which resulted in the cancellation of match fixtures.
    • Acting on behalf of one of  Britain’s largest property companies with a portfolio of £6 billion, in claims against both the contract administrator and contractors for issues relating to (but not limited to): poor project and contract management, failing to identify damp issues, securing the wrong air conditioning system, delays in a strip out and refit of a property and failure to pursue dilapidations in breach of contract/retainer. Such failures gave rise to significant losses for our client but we successfully settled the dispute at the pre action stage.
    • Acting for Westminster Academy in respect of a claim as a consequence of baffles falling from the ceiling within the building, causing significant consequential losses and costs of repair. This was successfully settled at a pre action stage.
