Whether advising on project structures and documentation, mid-stream issues or disputes, Holmes is known for overcoming legal, technical and commercial hurdles. Success depends on strategic advice that supports our clients’ plans and mitigates risk.
We support clients through every stage of the construction cycle, from procurement strategy, contract structures and contracts negotiation through to professional appointments, project agreements and development / funding arrangements. We also advise on risk management, problem solving and all forms of dispute resolution.
Clients come to us for advice on contracts and associated documentation, insurance arrangements and security (such as bonds, letters of credit and guarantees) and suitable warranties and third-party rights in sale and purchase agreements.
We advise both the public and private sector, including central and local government, funders, developers, contractors and design consultants.
