Our Services
The Security of Payment Act
At Construction Lawyer Brisbane, we specialise in leveraging the Building Industry Fairness (Security of Payment) Act 2017 for effective debt recovery in the construction industry. This crucial legislation provides a robust framework for contractors for Ipswich and surrounding areas to enforce their right to payment. Our services encompass guiding clients through the intricacies of Payment Claims, Payment Schedules, and Adjudication processes. This Act is particularly vital given the dense population and high activity in the construction sector, making it a cornerstone of our debt recovery strategy.
Other Methods for Construction Debt Recovery
Beyond the Security of Payment Act, we offer various avenues for debt recovery tailored to the unique scenarios of our clients. These include:
- Legal Proceedings: When disputes can’t be resolved through adjudication, we guide clients through legal proceedings, where a court judgement can enforce debt recovery.
- Subcontractors’ Charges: We assist in implementing subcontractors’ charges, securing a lien on properties as a guarantee for unpaid work, offering a powerful tool for securing payments.
- Suspension of Work: In cases of non-payment, we advise on and support the suspension of work, a significant measure that can accelerate dispute resolution due to its impact on project timelines and costs.
Our aim is to recover construction debt in a manner most suited to our client’s specific circumstances, ensuring a comprehensive and effective legal approach.
