Mr Neil Mason

Work Department
Real Estate
Position
I am a Senior Associate in Michelmores’ Construction and Engineering team.
I specialise in resolving construction disputes during the procurement, design, construction or the management of buildings and infrastructure. I have acted for employers (both public and private sector) and contractors and subcontractors in a variety of sectors. I have worked on disputes relating to residential developments, hotels, warehouses, car parks, hospitals, prisons and landscaping. The disputes I help to resolve often concern defective design or workmanship (including structural, mechanical and engineering), delay, payment and professional negligence. I achieve dispute resolution through negotiation, mediation, adjudication, litigation or arbitration – to force a resolution where necessary.
These disputes are complex, and I enjoy assembling and working with teams of experts to ensure clients receive the right advice to get workable solutions for their businesses. I often work collaboratively with Michelmores’ Projects, Property Litigation, and Commercial teams to ensure I get the remedies my clients need.
Michelmores’ commitment to helping clients achieve their ESG ambitions means I am looking forward to resolving construction disputes arising from breaches of environmental obligations, such as those relating to controlling carbon emissions, which increasingly feature in construction contracts.
