Building and construction disputes

For most people, their real property is the most significant asset in their life. For others, building and construction is their livelihood.

The construction industry has a proud history in Queensland. Our communities are strengthened by a successful building and construction industry.

 Vital to the success of the industry is ensuring an even playing field for all parties. Clutch Legal works with clients to ensure their rights are upheld under building contracts. 

With such a dependence on the construction industry, it is unsurprising that disputes over works and subcontracts are frequent in Queensland.

 We act for builders, sub-contractors, property owners and bodies corporate in relation to disputes for building contracts (commercial and residential).

 Disputes can arise for a number of reasons under building contracts, including:

1.     Allegations of defective works;

2.     Failure to make payments;

3.     Monies owing to subcontractors;

4.     Insolvency of an owner or builder;

5.     Delays or variations to works.
