Sought after for its ‘combination of deep industry expertise, practical commercial awareness, and a truly client-focused approach’, the contentious construction team at Stephenson Harwood acts for a roster of contractors, developers, and funders. The team’s broad experience is focused on disputes arising out of projects from the public and private sector. Charlotte Heywood and Paul Thwaite jointly lead the team and represent clients in a range of PFI disputes and delay and disruption claims, respectively. Ron Nobbs is routinely instructed by clients in the energy and transport sectors, while Oliver Sangster holds experience in both High Court litigation and internaitonal arbitration.
