getting the foundations right

The foundations for a successful construction project involve more than pouring plenty of concrete. Laying the legal groundwork in the early stages of a project ensures fixing any problems that arise down the track aren’t as costly as they could be. It’s about managing expectations and the obligations of all parties involved. If a dispute arises, the best course of action may involve being flexible on expectations, rather than demanding compensation. Ultimately, everyone is working to the same goal – a successfully completed project.

With construction contracts, often lengthy and complex documents, getting them right demands advice from lawyers who understand the realities of the industry. We ensure contracts meet the specific requirements of each project and relate to all parties involved – builders, developers, consultants, engineers and architects. And if a dispute arises, we identify the root cause of the issues and offer solutions. We work with our clients to resolve their problems in a quick, responsive way.
