Building and Construction Lawyers NSW

From your building or construction project’s conception, whatever its size or value, your choices and binding commitments will determine its outcome. It is an important aspect of your risk minimisation strategy to make such decisions in an informed and systematic way with the benefit of proper professional and trade advice.

Some common risks for businesses in this industry include:

  • inadequate cash flow;
  • a shortage of good quality tradespeople;
  • inadequate insurance;
  • not properly documenting contracts and variations;
  • being supplied with poor quality materials; or
  • the principal contractor going broke.

We understand what is at stake in these types of projects and have an experienced team who know the intricacies of Building and Construction law.
