About Edward Mcmullen

I lead a UK regional construction law team for Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner based out of our Southampton office. BCLP is a leading international, fully-integrated law firm with arguably the world's best legal real estate sector advisory business. Alongside our award winning property, litigation, planning & zoning practice areas our UK team of 40+ expert construction lawyers operate out of London, Manchester and Southampton. We provide a pragmatic and commercially focused service that keeps projects moving forwards. In a sector with frequent financial and legislation changes our team remains at the cutting edge. We work on the most complex projects for multi-disciplinary clients and clients with global reach.I have nearly 25 years of experience in dealing with commercial developments, advising on different types of building contracts and consultant appointments, warranties and other security instruments needed to safely and successfully document construction projects - or the relevant parts of real estate funding, leasing or acquisition / disposal agreements. I've acted for a broad spectrum of clients from across the construction industry, including owners (public, private or charitable), developers, contractors, institutional funders, and consultants. Clients seek specialist legal advice across multiple sectors beyond large scale commercial developments - such as retail & leisure; charity & non-profit; education; banking & finance; plus central, devolved and local government. I bring a ‘can-do’ attitude to align the different interest groups involved on any given project by respecting your needs, priorities and objectives. Where projects encounter difficulties or disputes we can help to resolve these matters, documenting settlement agreements or arranging for specialist forms of dispute resolution - from mediation to litigation.Examples of recent experience include advising freeholders, management companies and property agents on the procurement of cladding remediation work to HRBs and the application of the Building Safety Act more generally. I help to procure / renovate major city centre buildings; develop regional distribution hub infrastructure; new or refurbished leisure centres; B2R property blocks and university faculty buildings. My firm's profile has fuller details and credentials regarding our specialist construction experience. We also have lots of current legal advice - available for free - on issues that you may be concerned about.

    After an absence since 2006, it's a pleasure to rejoin the Commercial Construction team and Global Real Estate Department at BCLP.

    In 2006 I relocated east to experience the rapid rise of China, particularly in two special administrative regions: Hong Kong and Macau. Qualifying as a local lawyer, too, I was able to advise on a broad range of construction projects - from a piling dispute at a local school, to the $12bn mega-development known as Macau's Cotai Strip, and the fall out during the Financial Crisis.I advised Las Vegas Sands in resolving significant arbitrations concerning delay and disruption claims, as well as other commercial contracts and disputes. I advised the HK Government and provided training to many of the local industry institutions.Culturally, I have been exposed to the sensitivities needed to advise professionally in a demanding and unfamiliar environment. I bring that skill set to all my work and seek to build trust and a collaborative approach to getting transactions done efficiently and safely.
