Under the leadership of Stuart Pearson, Capital Law Limited has developed a particularly strong reputation advising on major Welsh infrastructure and energy projects. In this regard, Pearson is particularly effective at advising public sector clients, including the Welsh government, by dint of his market-leading knowledge of projects utilising the Mutual Investment Model (MIM). Pearson also handles contentious matters, as does senior associate Sam O’Callaghan, who adds particular benefit to clients by dint of his qualifications as a trained barrister. On the private sector front, the team regularly works alongside the commercial property team for developers.
