Our Services
The Security of Payment Act
At Construction Lawyer Brisbane, we specialise in leveraging the Building Industry Fairness (Security of Payment) Act 2017 to safeguard the interests of contractors and builders for Moreton Bay and its environs. This Act is a cornerstone in Queensland’s construction law, providing a robust framework for efficient and effective debt recovery. Our expertise extends to assisting clients with Payment Claims, Payment Schedules, and Adjudication processes, ensuring they receive the payments they are rightfully owed in a timely and cost-effective manner.
Other Methods for Construction Debt Recovery
Beyond the Security of Payment Act, we offer a range of alternative methods for construction debt recovery. These include:
- Legal Proceedings: When adjudication does not resolve disputes, we represent our clients in legal proceedings, where a court and judge will adjudicate the matter.
- Subcontractors’ Charges: We assist subcontractors in placing charges on properties as a security for unpaid work, providing a powerful tool to ensure payment.
- Suspension of Work: In cases where payment claims are ignored or unpaid, we guide our clients through the process of legally suspending work, a measure that can significantly impact project timelines and enforce attention to outstanding debts.
Our goal is to help our clients in Moreton Bay and surrounding areas recover construction debts in a manner best suited to their unique circumstances, ensuring their legal and financial interests are protected.
