Construction & Project
What We Do
Our Construction and Projects practice advises clients involved in construction, infrastructure, and project development matters across a range of asset classes. We act for developers, contractors, consultants, and financiers on the structuring, negotiation, and documentation of construction and project‑related arrangements.
Our experience includes advising on construction contracts for main contractors and subcontractors, concession and privatisation agreements, and joint development arrangements between developers and landowners. We also advise on project structuring matters involving mezzanine and other project financing arrangements. The practice supports clients throughout the project lifecycle, with a focus on managing contractual risk, regulatory considerations, and commercial objectives to facilitate the successful delivery of construction and infrastructure projects within Malaysia’s legal framework.
How We Can Assist You
We advise clients at all stages of construction and project development, from procurement and tendering through construction, completion, and operation. Our work includes drafting and negotiating construction‑related contracts, project and joint development agreements, and documentation supporting project financing structures.
We assist clients in identifying and managing legal and commercial risks, coordinating with multiple stakeholders, and addressing regulatory and approval requirements relevant to construction and infrastructure projects. Our integrated corporate, real estate, and financing capabilities allow us to provide coordinated advice on complex project structures. Throughout each engagement, we focus on providing clear, practical legal solutions that support timely execution and align with our clients’ project and investment objectives.
