Construction Law

Our firm provide legal advice to the construction and engineering industry in South Africa.

Construction Law involves any legal issue related to the construction of a building or other structure.

We advise on all aspects relating to Construction and Engineering Law, including:

• building and engineering contracts and related agreements, including development, management, supply, operation and maintenance contracts
• consultants’ conditions of appointment
• collateral warranties, parent company and performance guarantees and bonds
• professional indemnity and insurance
• construction disputes and the resolution thereof – whether by litigation, arbitration (local and international), adjudication, mediation or negotiation.

While no two projects are alike, success is always dependent on common factors: costs, appropriate risk allocation, team work, time to completion, quality and safety.
