The Practice
Between the professions,
by design.
Corvinus is a specialist construction and property practice operating at the intersection of law, technical expertise and forensic analysis.
Position
Alongside solicitors
Some construction matters require more than legal analysis alone. Corvinus understands the legal position, and also the building, design process, construction methodology and technical evidence.
Alongside surveyors
Technical evidence is only useful when its significance to the wider position is understood. Corvinus adds contractual, legal and forensic reasoning.
Alongside construction consultants
Corvinus additionally understands property rights, contractual obligations and how evidence must withstand challenge.
Not a claims practice
The objective is not to maximise a claim. The objective is to establish what can actually be defended.
