Construction disputes take many forms, often involving a range of complex issues including contractual interpretation, variations, defects and non-conforming works, programming issues, delay and disruption, latent conditions, non-conforming products, licensing and scope of work issues, retentions and security, set-offs and counter claims and the application of the various forms of construction specific legislation in play across Australia.
Our experienced construction lawyers have market leading expertise in construction disputes across the various forums of dispute, including Adjudication (security of payment), Mediation, Expert Determination, Arbitration, Specialist Tribunal and Court proceedings.
We provide expert advice in relation to the various forms of security of payment legislation in place across Australia, including BIF Act claims in Queensland and payment claims, payment schedules, adjudication applications, adjudication responses across all jurisdictions and appeals of adjudication decisions in Superior and Appellate Courts across Australia. Troy Legal has extensive experience in Superior and Appellate Courts across Australia, including QLD, NSW, VIC and NT.
A construction lawyer handles the legal side of building and infrastructure projects - reviewing and drafting contracts, advising on risk before problems start, and stepping in when disputes or non-payment happen. At Troy Legal we work across the whole lifecycle of a project, not just when things go wrong. The goal is to keep you out of expensive disputes in the first place, and to fight hard for you if one happens anyway.
Ideally before you sign anything - getting a contract reviewed up front is far cheaper than untangling a bad one later. That said, we regularly step in mid-project when a dispute is brewing, a payment claim needs to go out, or a builder or subcontractor isn't paying. There's no "too late" to get advice, but earlier is always better for your options.
Yes - while we're based in Brisbane and most of our work involves Queensland's BIF Act and QBCC framework, we act for developers, contractors, and subcontractors across NSW and Australia-wide. If your project touches a different state's security of payment legislation, get in touch and we'll tell you straight away if it's something we can help with.
