Protecting your rights from contract to completion
Contract reviews, advice and negotiations - all for a fixed price
We offer expert construction contract legal advice on your proposed building contract, whether it follows the Housing Industry Australia or Master Builders standard form, or is an entirely bespoke contract.
Our experienced domestic building lawyers will clarify your key risks, rights, and obligations. We can assist you in negotiating to establish the best possible legal arrangements for your residential building contract. We understand what to request, what can be conceded, and what elements should be non-negotiable.
To help you get started, take a look at the guides we have prepared specifically for property owners.
Advice and support during construction - so you know the best thing to do
If you've been left in a state of frustration and uncertainty due to delays, unexpected costs, or defects in your residential building contract, we can help you. Our team specialises in advising on construction law and contracts, to ensure you understand whether the involved parties are fulfilling their contractual and statutory obligations, and if the payments being claimed are actually due.
We will guide you through the process, explaining everything in plain English so you can clearly understand your rights and obligations, and know what steps to take next.
If you need assistance from a residential or domestic building lawyer, we are here to support you.
Dispute resolution - at the right price
With our detailed knowledge of construction law and dispute resolution, we provide essential legal support to resolve disputes with your construction partners.
Most disputes can be settled without escalating to formal legal proceedings. Our team will assist you in achieving this by:
- Issuing notices under the contract, compelling your counterparty to fulfill their contractual and legal obligations; and
- Negotiating on your behalf, targeting a swift and cost-effective resolution to the dispute.
If your issue cannot be resolved through negotiations or informal dispute resolution methods, our domestic building lawyers can represent you in legal proceedings, whether before state Civil and Administrative Tribunal or the courts (whether it's in the Magistrates, Local, Country, District, and Supreme Courts—we are well-versed in all of them).
Additionally, we can help you resolve specific issues such as fencing disputes or encroachment disputes with your neighbor, ensuring that your rights are upheld.
