About
Provided by Archor LLP
We are a boutique construction law firm. Construction law – developments, disputes and ad hoc advice – is all we do. Led by our six partners, we provide expert advice to clients in a way that is personal, responsive, and great value for money.
Combined, we have decades of experience of working in the construction industry and being involved in projects big and small – from developments with billion pound GDVs to residential refurbs. So our knowledge and experience can be taken as read – but it’s the way we deliver our advice which sets us apart. We want clients to receive a level of service well beyond their expectations.
