Building and Construction

The building and construction industry is heavily regulated at local, state and federal levels, which can add cost and delay if not managed.

We advise builders, contractors, subcontractors, developers, consultants and property owners across Australia on tendering, contracting, project delivery and disputes.

We draft and negotiate construction contracts, manage risk on variations and delays, and act in Security of Payment and defect matters.

If a dispute arises, we move quickly to protect your position and achieve cost-effective outcomes.

Contracting

Clear, workable construction contracts. We draft and negotiate AS 4000, AS 2124, AS 4902 and bespoke terms to manage scope, time, variations and payment so you avoid disputes.

Security of Payment

Compliant payment claims and schedules, adjudication applications and responses, and suspension and enforcement advice under the Security of Payment Act.

Home Building Work

Home building contracts made clear, ensuring compliance with the Home Building Act 1989, covering licences, warranties and defects, Fair Trading disputes, and representation in NCAT.
