OUR REGIONSInternational legal construction expertise where it matters most.
EUROPE & MIDDLE EAST THE CAUCASUS & CENTRAL ASIA SOUTH ASIA
SOUTHEAST ASIA HISPANIC AMERICA AFRICARegional experience into every project.
International Construction Chambers supports infrastructure, construction and energy projects across key global regions, combining FIDIC and NEC expertise with a practical understanding of local law and procedure. We shape and amend contracts, manage claims and resolve disputes through Dispute Boards, negotiation and, where needed, international arbitration so projects keep moving and relationships stay workable.
Europe & Middle EastCross‑border highways, rail and landmark buildings across Europe & the Middle East.
From EU‑funded highways in Central & Eastern Europe to airports, metros and towers across the Gulf, this region hosts some of the world’s most scrutinised transport and building projects. We act for governments and international contractors on roads and rail in Romania, Serbia, Albania, Poland, Bulgaria and North Macedonia, and on airports and buildings in Cyprus, Gibraltar, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE under FIDIC Red, Yellow and Silver Books and bespoke forms.
We are often instructed on multi‑stage Dispute Boards, to enforce or resist DB decisions, and to turn years of project correspondence into focused ICC strategies or settlements. Typical issues include delay and prolongation, material escalation, valuation of variations, termination and limitation, often in politically sensitive settings where reputation and lender expectations matter as much as the legal result.
The Caucasus & Central AsiaMountain corridors and hydropower across the Caucasus & Central Asia.
The Caucasus and Central Asia are building strategic corridors of roads, tunnels and hydropower assets across challenging terrain. We advise employers on limitation, termination and delay‑damage issues on motorway schemes, and act for contractors in high‑value ICC arbitrations concerning hydropower and other major civil‑works projects in Georgia and Kyrgyzstan.
Disputes often turn on tunnel collapses, geotechnical risk, access and weather, the validity of termination and calls on performance or advance‑payment securities. Working with legal, technical, delay and quantum experts, we present clear cases in DB and arbitration proceedings while always seeking negotiated outcomes that keep projects and relationships alive.
South AsiAHigh‑growth transport and energy programmes reshaping South Asia.
South Asia is rolling out major highways, metros, rail, ports and energy projects under EPC contracts, PPPs and sector‑wide reforms. We support contractors with contract management, techno‑legal disputes and arbitrations, and advise governments and agencies on road laws, PPP and toll policies, procurement frameworks and sector strategies in India and the wider region.
We draft concession agreements and policy documents as confidently as we run delay, disruption and quantum claims on EPC works. We help clients anticipate how land, stakeholders, regulation and climate risk will play out in contracts and, when disputes arise, guide them through DRBs and arbitration with close attention to local process and expectations.
Southeast AsiaUrban, industrial and energy projects driving growth in Southeast Asia.
Southeast Asia combines cross‑border supply chains with a dense pipeline of rail, road, sewerage, industrial and building projects, especially in Malaysia and Singapore. We advise employers on mega‑rail, sewerage and road schemes and support contractors on claims and disputes for buildings, industrial facilities and power plants under FIDIC and local forms.
We work regularly with adjudication, AIAC and ICC arbitration on variations, certified sums, delay, liquidated damages and defects. Seeing both employer and contractor perspectives helps us spot where risk allocation, payment and programme controls typically fail, and fix those issues during delivery rather than only at final account.
Hispanic AmericaHydropower and long‑term concessions transforming Hispanic America.
Across Latin America and other Spanish‑speaking markets, infrastructure programmes increasingly use FIDIC‑style contracts and Dispute Boards for long‑term hydropower and transport assets. Our current work includes high‑value hydropower disputes in Peru under FIDIC Yellow Book‑based contracts, with complex construction, delay and financial issues.
We understand how DBs and arbitration interact in a context of intense public scrutiny, regulatory enforcement and multilateral‑lender oversight. We help contractors and employers present technically grounded cases and reach settlements that preserve projects, especially where assets are central to regional energy transitions.
AfricaTransport, power and city‑building projects reshaping Africa.
Africa’s roads, bridges, power stations and urban infrastructure are expanding rapidly, often with multilateral support and FIDIC‑based contracts. Our experience covers ICC arbitration and advisory work on road schemes in Uganda and the DRC, power‑station disputes in Sudan, and wider programme tasks such as CDAP infrastructure, road‑safety reviews and development‑bank‑driven compliance work.
We see how delay, ground conditions, capacity constraints and social‑impact requirements affect both delivery and disputes on African projects. We help employers and contractors structure ADR clauses, use adjudication and arbitration effectively, and align dispute‑resolution strategy with national frameworks and financier standards.
