Completing a major contract or construction project in Greenland is quite an achievement in itself. The climatic conditions alone place demands that you don’t see in many other places. Add to that factors such as Greenlandic legislation, labor supply, access to building materials, etc.
As Greenland’s leading law firm, we are also the leaders in advising on real estate and construction. Our expertise in this area covers the entire construction process, from initial studies and identifying opportunities to screening potential partners, drafting contracts, procurement law and the composition of consortia – including public/private partnerships (PPP).
We have many years of experience as advisors in a wide range of large and small and sometimes very complex construction projects and have represented a number of the largest contractors and developers. Over the years, we have also conducted a large number of arbitration and litigation cases concerning construction and real estate.
We know the real estate sector and have an extensive and strong network among Danish, Greenlandic and international clients – both public and private – contractors, project developers and the various public authorities with interests in the sector.
We work in the intersection between clauses and concrete, and while you can never be 100% sure that disputes won’t arise in major construction projects, in the vast majority of cases we manage to resolve minor issues before they become major and costly.
So whether it’s a real estate acquisition or a major construction project, we have the expertise. We advise our clients in connection with professional, major and main contracts, turnkey contracts and consultancy contracts. We assist in the planning and organization of construction projects, identify and uncover risks and participate in the development of major construction projects.
We also work with the transfer and acquisition of real estate, applications for land allocation, etc. The special conditions that apply to real estate in Greenland are part of our DNA.
