Your people
The work.
Building and construction work sits with our commercial and disputes practice, led by Theodosi Cotsaris.
We draft and negotiate contracts for residential, commercial and industrial projects, review contracts before you sign, and act in disputes over faulty or non-compliant work and delays. We act for homeowners, builders, subcontractors and developers, and try negotiation and mediation before court.
Fees, before you begin.
We do not publish a fixed fee for this work. Fees are set out up front, before the file is opened, so ask for the estimate in the first conversation.
Fees and eligibility can change. Confirm them with us before relying on them.
