Architectural law covers disputes and governance around the design, construction and use of buildings, where the architect’s role and duties meet planning, building regulations and contract management. A solicitor practicing in this area handles construction contracts, design liability, professional negligence claims, and interfaces with contractors, clients and regulatory bodies. They may also deal with party wall notices, planning appeals, and compliance issues arising from the Building Regulations and planning permissions. This work matters because decisions about design responsibility and compliance can shape budgets, timelines and the safety and usability of built environments.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor assesses complex liability and contract provisions, including design responsibility, standard forms (e.g., JCT, NEC, or bespoke contracts), and the interplay with planning and building control regimes. They gather and review technical evidence, instruct surveyors and engineers, advise on risk allocation, and navigate disputes that arise from design changes, delays, or defective works.
