BELL & SCOTT W.S

Highly responsive to the fast-changing requirements of property projects, we cover everything from advising clients on major city centre developments to conveyancing on individual housebuilding plots. Clients include developers, funders, investors, occupiers and some of the UK's best-known retailers and leisure operators. As a dynamic leader in commercial property law, we provide a daily sector knowledge update, a range of focused seminars and a monthly update on new property legislation.

Our detailed knowledge of construction issues means our lawyers are always one step ahead, tackling potential problems before they occur. A thorough approach, together with our appreciation of tight margins and deadlines, ensure a smooth and profitable outcome. We advise developers, contractors, design consultants and financial institutions. We deal with all forms of building procurement, preparation of collateral warranties and professional appointments. We offer clients advice on all types of construction disputes as well as the interpretation of legislation in this field.

The team is headed by Brandon Malone, who is accredited by the Law Society of Scotland as a specialist in Construction Law, and is appointed to the Society's Construction Law Adjudication Panel.
