Contentious construction covers disputes arising from building projects, including contract breaches, defects, delay or disruption claims, payment disputes and professional negligence. A solicitor in this area handles the dispute from start to finish: advising on liability, preparing pleadings and documentary evidence, drafting and issuing statements of case, managing interim applications, and leading or defending court or arbitration proceedings. They also navigate adjudication under the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, negotiate settlement across JCT and NEC contracts, and instruct experts or mediators where needed.

What Contentious Construction clients highlight
“I don't normally write reviews but I simply must share my experience regarding Forbes Solicitors and in particular Sheroze Nadeem who dealt with my matter. Sheroze has been absolutely brilliant, professional, hard working, knowledgeable and dedicated. I noted he worked on my case in the evenings and weekends. Absolutely outstanding communication which is lacking in other firms Ive used in the past. He calmly and effectively dealt with my matter always in a timely way. Sheroze listened attentively to my concerns and put me at ease throughout. Unfortunately in these days people/firms often follow the money. Not in Sheroze's case who was diligent and focused purely on achieving the best outcome for me. I would definitely recommend using Forbes and if you get a choice, choose Sheroze.”

“We have been working with Andrew Hornsby from Hegarty's for a number of years and would highly recommend his services. We run a construction claims business and use Andrew where we need to elevate matters to court proceedings. We have used Hegarty's a number of times for enforcement proceedings, all with a positive outcome.”
