Building and Construction Disputes
As with property law disputes, building and construction disputes involve a great deal of money and personal investment. Stress and anxiety levels are high as the people you trusted start to step back from their obligations.
Building and construction disputes are mostly disputes involving the written terms of a contract (which is often varied during the course of a project), but sometimes involve claims for work done and not paid for – known as unjust enrichment or a claim in quantum meruit.
