Service content updated:
Before requesting construction & tender law advice.
Why are notices important in construction claims?
Many contracts make timely, properly framed notices relevant to entitlement. The full clause, facts, timing, and applicable law must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
Do construction claims require expert evidence?
Some delay, defect, valuation, and quantum issues may require independent technical or financial experts. The need and scope should be identified early and proportionately.
How are fees set?
By the question, documents, urgency and deliverable. We confirm scope and fees before work; additional work is agreed separately.
How is my information handled?
Confidentially under professional and privacy obligations, subject to legally required or permitted disclosures. Agree the secure handling method before sharing originals or highly sensitive information.
Does advice include representation?
Representation begins with an agreed engagement covering the responsible lawyer, forum, work and fees. Filing, appearances, notarisation and negotiation are included when agreed. Outcomes depend on the facts, evidence, applicable law and decisions of the competent authority.
