As its name suggests, construction law covers legal matters related to construction. This includes planning permissions, engineering, infrastructure and housing, among other fields.
Construction lawyers specialise in the laws and regulations governing construction. It's their job to advise you of your rights and negotiate with relevant parties on your behalf.
Our team has experience in many areas of construction law. Our duties include negotiating contracts, making site visits and advising of precedents in construction case law to help you avoid common pitfalls.
We can also help with construction litigation, in case things don't go to plan.
Construction projects are usually complex and can be contentious. As a result, it's not uncommon for disputes to arise.
If these disputes can't be resolved through "alternative" methods, such as mediation or arbitration, then they may progress to court. This kind of legal action is called construction litigation.
Construction disputes can happen for many reasons, including contractual issues, deviations from building plans, and simple disagreements about key facts.
Our construction lawyers can help resolve disputes through arbitration, or – if necessary – help gather evidence and present a strong case to court.
Construction arbitration is a type of formal dispute resolution. All parties agree on and appoint an arbitrator, who will review the evidence and decide on a resolution on their behalf.
It's much like a lawsuit but conducted without involvement from the courts. In this sense, the arbitrator is like a judge – it's their job to act as a neutral third party and come to a legally binding conclusion based on facts, evidence and the law.
However, arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit and can be quicker and cheaper. It's also conducted privately, though not necessarily confidentially.
Arbitration is considered the final step in a dispute resolution process before matters are taken to court. It's often used when informal negotiations and mediation have failed.
