Trusted by UK Businesses
We’re proud to support a wide range of UK businesses — from subcontractors and SMEs to large enterprises. Here’s what some of our clients have said about working with us.
Highly recommended, MCL took the time to explain my situation and the steps involved to resolve. Got me the results and more importantly the money I was due, which I had given up on. Very professional whilst also been friendly.
Nadeem Chaudhry
Excellent professional and efficient service. Would highly recommend.
Axel Dara
Great work from MCL. Quickly outlined the position and the actions that needed to be taken. Fast and good value for money.
Leo Bocci
Very happy to support MCL team. We have known MCL for some years in terms of our mutual interest in construction, ourselves as a professional Business Development Consultancy.
While our business has always run smoothly, we had occasion to use MCL legal expertise in a very tricky situation several years ago when an aggressive UK construction data provider threatened us with severe legal action over alleged misuse of data, even though we had had a good relationship with them for years.
MCL provided us with immediate legal support to demolish their case and remove any possibility of action against us. We’ve always found MCL highly professional – and also friendly and easy to talk to. We are very happy to recommend the team to other firms and business people.

What types of disputes do you handle?

What is a construction dispute, and how can it be resolved in the UK?
A construction dispute is a disagreement between parties involved in a building or engineering project – for example, conflicts over contract terms, payment delays, defective work, or project timing.
In the UK, parties often start with negotiation or mediation. If that fails, adjudication is a fast-track legal process under UK construction law, typically providing a decision within 28 days. For more complex disputes, we can proceed with court litigation or international arbitration. Our firm guides clients through each step, ensuring the approach aligns with business goals.
Do you handle commercial disputes outside the construction sector?
Yes, we act for clients in a wide range of industries, providing legal support for general commercial disputes, contract breaches, partnership conflicts, debt recovery, professional negligence, and more.
