Emma Nash

Principal Associate

What can I do for you

Emma is a transactional lawyer who specialises in construction and engineering contracts. Her role involves advising employers, master developers, funders, landlords and contractors. She is accomplished in drafting, negotiating and completing complex construction contracts, including building contracts, development agreements, framework agreements and consultant appointments. Emma has particular experience with JCT, NEC and ICC contracts.

Supporting your ambitions

Emma advises a number of master developer clients on the construction contracts for key strategic development sites.  Given the complex nature of these sites and the large number of parties and stakeholders involved, Emma has had to take a pragmatic approach in dealing with third parties to get deals over the line and on time. Emma also has to make full use of project trackers and work closely with other members of the client's team in order to ensure that nothing falls off the radar.

She has advised on a number of projects which have involved modern methods of construction.

What do others say

Emma is named by Legal 500 as a Rising Star where she is stated as showing "absolute dedication and loyalty to the client‘.

Emma is praised by clients for her “sterling work” in meeting deadlines, her “perseverance and grit” and for her "brilliant" work on a completion which was "spot on".

What else should you know

Emma is a member of the Society of Construction Law.

Emma takes a particular interest in corporate social responsibility. Emma is on the Cambridge office's charity committee and ran the London Marathon in 2017 in aid of Blue Smile. Emma also regularly runs the Cambridge Half Marathon and every year cajoles the rest of the team to enter too!

What our clients say about us

  • I think Mills & Reeve are a wonderful firm. The support they have provided to us in a really difficult area has been brilliant, collaborative and commercially minded. The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.
  • They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.
  • All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.
  • I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.

As many clients will testify, too many lawyers deliver the required legal expertise but fail to deliver an outstanding client experience. Which is why we always listen to our clients and constantly ask ourselves what we can do to deliver the results you expect.

You expect a close and attentive working relationship, with a lawyer that is responsive and available when you need them. You also want clear, pragmatic and commercial advice tailored to your needs, and transparency and certainty on costs. We completely agree. That’s why every day, through our culture and approach we are committed to delivering the exceptional results and service our clients expect of us.
