Building contracts are blueprints for success or failure. As a developer you will enter into contracts with other parties including contractors, banks, consultants and other agencies. These contracts are vital to the success of your project and it is important to take legal advice at the outset in order to minimise potential contractual errors. |

Contracts determine who is responsible for which elements of the project, when they are responsible and how much they can charge. We are highly experienced in the industry, we know the characters and can guide you safely to success. If developing for investment we can ensure that you produce an attractive package for selling or leasing on.
When borrowing money you will need to satisfy the bank that the construction documentation meets their requirements. We can anticipate what the bank will look for and make sure you have it before it is required. If you are publicly funded you may need to comply with EC procurement legislation. We can help you through Procurement Regulations for Public Service Contracts, Public Supply Contracts and Public Works Contracts.
When dealing with contractors you must ensure that they will build exactly what you want, when you want it and for the right price. We understand the tricks of the trade and know where there are hidden opportunities for contractors to make money at your expense.
We can advise you on contractual matters to protect your project against error. If you find yourself in a difficult situation, we have the expertise and experience to find the right solution. Problems do happen. We can help you find a commercial solution by deploying the best arguments for you. If no other avenue is open we will pursue or defend your rights through Dispute Resolution, Adjudication, Arbitration, Court action, Litigation, Negotiation or Mediation.
The sooner you speak to us, the more help we can be. Starting with a blank sheet gives us more scope, keeps costs down and improves your negotiating position. Getting it right first time is cheaper and quicker than dealing with a problem. Involve us from the beginning.
