Infrastructure and construction lawyer specialities

At Womble Bond Dickinson, we recognise that each project undertaken by our clients differs immensely from one another. Influenced by the individual goals of the client and what they hope to gain, as well as the specific trials faced within their sector, our team takes the time to develop a bespoke, industry-specific strategy that acknowledges the constraints and challenges that affect each individual project. 

Backed by a substantial catalogue of successful projects, including large-scale infrastructure projects in the power generation, offshore, transportation, engineering and renewable energy sectors, our lawyers have developed an invaluable network of contacts all across the globe.

Our construction lawyers have also gained a deep insight into the construction industry, derived from years of experience and secondments with key clients. 

Working across every area of the construction industry, our team has formed long-term partnerships with a wide range of clients which include contractors, government and public sector bodies, developers, building product manufacturers, homebuilders, investors, employers, architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, project managers and contract administrators and their insurers. This vast range of clients has provided us with a specialist knowledge of each individual cog in the construction machine, as well as an intimate understanding of how they interact with each other, giving us the experience needed to provide informed and comprehensive legal advice.
