The specialist construction team at Womble Bond Dickinson (UK) LLP is well placed to handle instructions at the regional and national levels, expertly handling construction disputes, transactional mandates, national infrastructure schemes, and public inquiries. In particular, the team has recently seen increased activity related to project work in the energy transition space, an area of focus for the department. Under the leadership of procurement and funding expert Simon Rowland, the team regularly acts for local and national authorities as well as leading educational entities. Ian Atkinson takes point on the transactional front, handling developments, local government regeneration projects, and PFIs. Simon Lewis specialises in contentious mandates, regularly acting for clients in the infrastructure and energy sectors, while Helen Coxon is a key contact for clients in the public sector.
