Richard is also experienced in international arbitrations having represented clients in ADCCAC, DIAC, ICC and LCIA arbitrations.

In 2016, Richard relocated to BCLP’s UAE offices where he undertakes a mixture of contentious and non-contentious construction and engineering work and has particular experience in the FIDIC forms of contract.

How UAE is legislating to decarbonise buildings

The built environment is crucial to the United Arab Emirates' (UAE's) extraordinary and rapid ascent: since its foundation in 1971, the country has constructed the world's tallest building and largest shopping mall. That scale of development has undoubtably made the UAE the success it is today – but has come at a cost. The World Economic Forum estimates that 40% of global carbon emissions come from buildings and infrastructure, and the lion's share of these come from ongoing building operation. The energy consumption of buildings in the UAE is among the highest in the world, with modern living in the Arabian Peninsula necessitating 24-hour air conditioning in malls, homes and offices.
