What is a Building Dispute?
A building dispute arises when conflicts and disagreements occur during a construction project, whether it is residential or commercial. These disputes can emerge when one or more parties involved in the project fail to fulfil their contractual obligations. Issues related to construction defects, delays, payment disputes, variations, and contract terminations are common sources of building disputes. Resolving these disputes requires a comprehensive understanding of construction laws, contract agreements, and dispute resolution mechanisms. As experienced building dispute lawyers serving the residents of Lithgow, we specialise in navigating these complex issues and providing effective legal representation to protect your rights and interests throughout the dispute resolution process.
