Lawson Lundell's Construction Law Group has extensive experience in project construction and engineering. Members of the group have prepared, reviewed and negotiated terms and documentation for public infrastructure, oil and gas, co-generation, hydro-electric, mining and forestry projects located in Western Canada, as well as internationally, in South America and South East Asia. In many of these projects, our lawyers have worked closely with project engineers in the preparation of tender packages and have settled joint venture, consulting, financing, insurance and bonding arrangements for the participants. As many of these assignments have extended over a number of years, members of the group have been engaged on an ongoing basis to provide advice on a variety of construction related issues, including claims. More recently, members of the group have been involved in complex RFP and similar procurement processes for public infrastructure projects, including public-private partnerships.
The Construction Law Group also includes dispute resolution specialists experienced in a wide variety of construction matters that have been resolved by negotiation, mediation, arbitration or litigation. These have involved complex claims disputes as well as the more common issues arising from tendering delays, changes, extra work, changed conditions, liens, bonds, inadequate design or specifications and other related matters.
Examples of our work include:
project counsel to major hydro-electric generation projects;
project counsel to an international mining corporation for its diamond mine project in the NWT;
project counsel to major forest products companies for various mill development and expansion projects;
special counsel to an international oil corporation for its oil sands development;
counsel to an international construction company for its projects worldwide;
advisors to owners developing co-generation, smelter, port terminals and other facilities;
counsel in the development and construction of the automated rapid transit commuter rail system serving the Lower Mainland of British Columbia;
counsel to various mining companies in the development and construction of mine projects, both domestic and international; and
counsel to government or private participants in various proposed P3 and RFP projects such as the proposed Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre, the RAV rapid transit project, the BC Rail privatization, the Coquihalla Highway project and others.
