A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates contracts, reviews tender documents, handles performance and delay issues, assesses defects and liability, and represents clients in adjudication, arbitration or court if disputes arise. They also advise on payment mechanisms, collateral warranties, performance bonds, and liens, and manage risk around project delays, defects, and termination.
