Details

Now in a fully updated second edition, The Law of Construction Disputes

covers the construction dispute process by analysing the main areas that can lead to disputes and how to effectively deal with them once they have arisen. This edition expands on advanced practitioner issues, as well as the emerging law of construction disputes on an international basis.

The book examines the methods and methodology of dispute resolution in construction, not only for a common law context, but also under other legal systems. Readers will be guided through the various international contract formats governing these disputes, alongside applicable case law. Additionally, they will be shown the correct contract provisions and forms used to prevent disputes from escalating in order to reach successful conclusions without litigation.

Including expert advice and many relevant reference materials, this book is an extremely helpful guide to legal practitioners and construction professionals.
