Practice area
Construction and real estate
ANNOT advises clients on construction and real estate matters. We represent construction clients, contractors, consultants and other parties in projects where legal, technical and commercial issues need to be handled together.
Construction projects often involve multiple parties, extensive documentation and ongoing changes. Disputes may concern the contractual scope, variations and additional work, delays, defects, payment, inspections or the allocation of liability between the parties.
We advise during ongoing projects and represent clients in disputes after completion. Early analysis can identify legal and practical risks before a conflict escalates.
Our advice reflects the commercial realities of the project. Our objective is to clarify responsibilities, claims and available options, whether the matter should be resolved through negotiation, mediation, court proceedings or arbitration.
We assist with
- Review and interpretation of construction contracts.
- Variations and additional work, impediments and delays.
- Defects, liability and remedial work.
- Payment claims and final accounts.
- Inspections and notices of defects.
