Construction disputes lawyer
A qualified specialist specializing in the legal regulation of relations in the construction sector is the key to success in resolving disputes. A lawyer for construction disputes has deep knowledge, understands the specifics of the processes and helps to avoid many legal problems at the initial stages of each initiated project. His services will also be useful at the stage of preparation for interaction with various suppliers and contractors.
Construction disputes: concepts and types
Construction disputes are related to various aspects in this area. As the practice of “Prikhodko & Partners” lawyers shows, they can be conditionally divided into:
- disputes that arise at the stage of construction work. Quite often, confrontations arise due to non-compliance of the performed work with established standards, building codes, cancellation of urban planning conditions or issuance of construction passports;
- disputes related to the financial obligations of the parties to the relationship. We are talking about disputes regarding claims for compensation for damage, collection of penalties under the contract, payment for work performed, etc.;
- disputes related to contractual relations in construction. We mean those conflicts related to the interpretation of the terms of the contract, making necessary changes to it, declaring the contract invalid, etc.;
- disputes related to land issues. Quite often, there are cases when there is a need to appeal decisions on the provision of land plots for construction, resolving issues regarding their proper registration;
- disputes that arise when interacting with state bodies. It is worth mentioning the numerous conflicts regarding the legality of requirements and penalties from the State Architectural and Construction Inspectorate (SACI);
- disputes regarding other aspects of interaction between participants in construction relations. Most often, these are disputes regarding the legalization of unauthorized construction, commissioning of the facility, state registration of rights to the facilities, etc.
What questions should you ask a lawyer about construction disputes?
Both the customer and the contractor or the executor of the works can contact the relevant specialist with various requests. We recommend contacting:
- at the preparation stage – to analyze contracts, compliance of project documentation with the requirements of current national legislation, obtaining a building permit, etc.;
- if it is necessary to register land plots for construction – to check title documents, the presence of land encumbrances, etc.;
- during the construction process itself – to monitor compliance of works with building codes, prepare claims in case of unfair performance of contractual obligations;
- at the stage of commissioning the facility after completion of construction – to prepare the necessary documents, register ownership, etc.;
- to protect the rights of investors – to receive a high-quality analysis of contracts, check documents for the facility.
