David Vayro

Partner

Construction

David has over 25 years of experience and expertise in both non-contentious (transactional and projects) and contentious (litigation, arbitration and various forms of ADR, including statutory adjudication, mediation, and expert determination) construction work.  He advises clients and employers (both public and private), developers, contractors, specialist subcontractors and consultants across a range of sectors including, Housing (private and public sector), Commercial, Hotel and Leisure, Manufacturing and Industrial.

David also advises on contentious PFI/ PPP work as well as project and transactional work. He was involved in the NHS Lift primary health care initiative since its inception in the early 2000’s, acting both on project work and dispute work for Liftcos, Funders, Principal Contractors and on more mainstream PFI acting for developers in relation to deductions claims and defects claims.

David’s PFI/PPP work also expanded to embrace expertise in both contentious and non-contentious aspects of public procurement within the construction sector. The non-contentious work involves advising clients (Housing Associations, Local Authorities and Developers/ Contractors) on compliance with various aspects of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contentious aspects have concerned several challenges (some resulting in proceedings in the TCC) to procurement decisions by Authorities primarily in relation to the award of public contracts.

David completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Public Procurement Law and Practice, with Distinction, at Nottingham University

Outside of work you can find me…

For David, driving/ riding/ tinkering with cars and motorbikes is more an obsession than a personal interest.

He has been competing with himself since he was 12 as a long distance runner, he holds a number of belts in Karate and Tang Soo Do and he is a (non-hollywood) short-film actor when all the other interests allow!
