What is a Building Dispute?
A building dispute encompasses conflicts and disagreements that may arise during a construction project, whether residential or commercial.

Common issues that may lead to building disputes include disputes over payment, variations in project specifications, delays in completion, defects in construction, and contract terminations. When such disputes occur, seeking the assistance of an experienced building dispute lawyer becomes crucial to navigate the complexities of construction law and working towards finding a favourable resolution for all parties involved.
