Completing major infrastructure or other government projects can sometimes feel like an obstacle course - especially when there are actual or proposed changes to the law looming in parliament. Our dedicated Parliamentary legal team has the experience to steer you through these challenges, guiding you successfully from inception through to implementation.
We offer a comprehensive suite of legal support: providing you with a one-stop shop in dealing with every aspect of a large project, from consents to property issues, from procurement to corporate finance.
Our lawyers and our Roll ‘A’ Parliamentary Agents have extensive experience in the strategic, procedural, tactical and legal aspects of securing authorizations for infrastructure projects. We’re regularly helping our clients with complex applications that involve multiple consent regimes. So whether you’re involved in railways, airports, nuclear, wind-farm or other renewables, port, bridge or road projects, no matter how big your project, we have the inside track and the legal know-how to bring it to life.
Our Parliamentary team are market leaders in promoting or opposing development consent orders, transport and works orders, harbour orders and hybrid bills. And whether you’re in the public or private sector, we can promote private bills for you with special statutory powers - helping you to overcome problems which would otherwise be intractable. You can be confident that through flexible and innovative solutions we will secure the authorizations you need for your project to succeed, whatever the level of complexity.
