Construction Law

What is Construction Law?

Construction law consists of  laws governing building and construction projects from inception to completion. It includes contract law, property law, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance specific to the construction industry.

In New South Wales, construction projects operate under complex regulatory laws, including the Home Building Act, Security of Payment Act, and numerous Australian Standards and building codes. To protect commercial interests and ensure compliance, it is important for you to work with a building and construction lawyer who understands these legal requirements.
