Our Services
The Security of Payment Act
Construction Lawyer Brisbane is well-versed in the Building Industry Fairness (Security of Payment) Act 2017, a crucial legislation for contractors in Brisbane and surrounding areas like Ashgrove. This Act provides a solid legal framework for contractors to enforce debt recovery in a manner that is both efficient and cost-effective. We assist our clients in navigating this process by helping with Payment Claims, Payment Schedules, and Adjudication, ensuring they are paid fairly and promptly for their services.
Other Methods for Construction Debt Recovery
In addition to the Security of Payment Act, we also offer guidance and support in other methods of construction debt recovery. This includes initiating legal proceedings when disputes cannot be resolved through adjudication, enabling a court and judge to make a final determination. We also assist in the application of Subcontractors’ Charges, providing a security for the payment of debts through a charge on the property. Furthermore, we advise on the suspension of work as a measure to enforce payment claims, though it is used cautiously considering its significant impact on project timelines and costs. At Construction Lawyer Brisbane, we tailor our approach to each client’s unique circumstances, ensuring the most suitable and effective debt recovery solution is employed.
