Advising and delivering on complex and major projects
Our lawyers are drawn from all specialist areas of law required for the successful delivery of, and ongoing advice on, complex and major projects.
We have been involved in most of Scotland’s key infrastructure and PFI/PPP/NPD projects, acting in over 50 PPP projects with a total value of over £4 billion.
We are increasingly involved in ongoing operational issues, such as variations, benchmarking, refinancing, equity transfers, sub-contract issues, disputes and other matters as individual projects turn into businesses.
We also advise on ongoing operational issues on a range of PFI projects including infrastructure, transport, energy, outsourcing, and construction and engineering projects.
They are simply with you all the way in whatever issue you are trying to resolve.
