Construction & Property Professionals

Construction is one of our core areas of expertise. Our specialist construction team has vast experience defending claims against architects, structural and civil, mechanical and electrical and geotechnical engineers, project managers, quantity surveyors, surveyors and valuers, property managers and estate agents. Our team has worked on some of the largest claims ever to reach the Courts; however, no claims are too small and none too large claim and we always resource every claim in a cost-effective and appropriate manner.

The team also offers far-reaching capability in the even more specialist field of D&C professional indemnity insurance where it has defended contractors and sub-contractors across a wide variety of disciplines. This includes negotiating the particular challenges of first-party claims, which manifest and unfold in the context of a live on-going project. We fully appreciate that the main priority is to resolve issues on site as quickly and efficiently as possible to avoid delay and disruption to the project, to head off any third-party claim and, where appropriate, to preserve and pursue rights of recovery against any sub-contractor/sub-consultant as cost-effectively as possible.
