Howard originally qualified as a Chartered Building Surveyor and Chartered Builder and Construction Manager and spent 22 years in the industry working for both contractors and clients before re-qualifying as a solicitor in 1999.
Since then he has amassed 20 years’ experience specialising in contentious and non-contentious Construction and Engineering work, in relation to both construction and engineering contracts, including process chemical engineering. During that time Howard has conducted in excess of 200 adjudications on behalf of employers, contractors, sub-contractors and construction professionals and has seminal reported case wins at first instance and more particularly in both the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords. Howard also has extensive non-contentious experience in drafting construction contracts, professional appointments, warranties and security documentation.
In his spare time Howard enjoys golf, the gym, cycling and motorsport.
