Design-build has become one of the favoured approaches to project delivery in the construction industry because it can reduce work, risk and costs. Achieving these efficiencies is not quite as simple as choosing the right delivery model though. It is also essential to be advised by legal counsel who understand the construction industry and know how to advance their clients’ interests within it.

Our lawyers have extensive experience advising clients on design-build projects, and helping them navigate all stages of project construction, from assisting with project financing, drafting contracts, advising on risk, and litigating actions over delays and deficiencies.
