Utilizing its dominant oil and gas and mining practices, Bennett Jones LLP is uniquely positioned to handle construction work in the energy and natural resources fields — its recent mandates additionally span transport, real estate and social infrastructure. Chiefly sought after by project owners (both private clients and public authorities), the team is equipped to support on a wide scope of transactional and contentious matters. Calgary-based Jason Roth steers the construction law group and specializes in non-contentious work, with an emphasis on procurement, project development and supply chain issues. Geoffrey Stenger, who splits his time between Calgary and Toronto, heads the capital projects area and primarily acts for owners and contractors on commercial matters. Calgary’s Brian Reid is a key contact for construction disputes, with a focus on energy-related cases.
