Our team has the expertise to assist you with all aspects of the construction process. From procurement and pre-contract negations through to contract management, dispute avoidance and dispute resolution, we can add significant value for you.

EXPERTISE & EXPERIENCE

We work with clients on a variety of construction projects including residential subdivisions, apartments, commercial and industrial developments, roading and other infrastructure projects.

We are proud to have worked on successful projects throughout the country.
 
When things go wrong we have the dispute resolution skills to steer your project back to success either through the use of formal and informal dispute resolution processes or through litigation. We can work closely with you to obtain the best outcome for you.
