Our specialists assist investors, financiers, contractors and end users with countless complex matters, from the structuring of new projects and representation in international construction disputes to providing advice on complex procurement issues.
Our expertise in the construction & development sector
Assisting clients with major construction projects requires a knowledge that extends beyond traditional construction law. For example, in public-private partnerships, builders, investors and financiers need an integrated legal approach to issues such as construction contract law, company law and project financing. The expertise of our construction & development specialists goes beyond the norm, and they work closely with our experts in areas such as M&A, spatial planning, energy and finance. All of this enables our Construction & Development Team to offer bespoke services for every project.
Representation in construction and procurement disputes requires, in addition to specialist legal knowledge, a thorough understanding of the sector. Our specialists have this knowledge. International contracts are increasingly becoming the subject of litigation and are often accompanied by a different form of dispute settlement, such as mediation, binding advice or arbitration. Our knowledge and experience, combined with our international litigation and arbitration practices, means that Houthoff has extensive expertise in this area.
