Plan for what is difficult while it is easy... A tactical guide to construction insolvencies.

Construction companies accounted for almost 16% of all insolvencies in England and Wales in the year up to January 2025, and levels of financial distress continue to be high in the industry. How you deal with an insolvency situation can make or break a project.

In this Construction law fundamentals seminar, Jane Hughes and Helena Wade in our Projects & Construction Team will tell you what you can do to protect against insolvency risk and what to do if you experience an insolvency on a project.

We shall cover:

  • What contractual protections you can put in place.

  • Red flags.

  • What to do following an insolvency - the key short, medium and long term steps.

  • Suggestions for project rescue.

  • The impact of insolvency on the requirements of building and fire safety legislation.

We hope you will join us for this highly topical seminar. Please RSVP if you are able to attend.
