Joint Ventures & PFI 

Our Knowledge, Your Business

If you operate long-term partnering arrangements with the private or public sectors Irwin Mitchell can provide highly accessible and practical commercial legal advice concerning JVs, public-private partnerships including PFI and other forms of joint working. This is particularly important when so many joint ventures are highly complex, with large sums of money involved.

Experts In Joint Ventures

Joint ventures can take a contractual or incorporated form, and carry varying degrees of risk.  We can help you identify a structure that is right for your organisation and works well day-to-day.

For bodies such as school governors, there can be considerable risks with PFI, though these are usually manageable with the right advice. It is important that PFI arrangements allow those running facilities to exercise their judgment appropriately, though the PFI situation can be particularly complex for voluntary aided schools because land is often owned by trusts.

Utilising our expertise and knowledge of joint ventures and PFI issues, we can advise on matters such as:

  • The Private Finance Initiative
  • A range of public sector joint ventures
  • All stages of the project cycle - from the outset of a proposed PFI to amending current schemes
  • Ensuring projects are fit for purpose
  • Making sure that your involvement is reflected in appropriate commercial terms
  • Seeking out a fair deal and helping to enhance its terms using factors such as local knowledge
