This area covers how payments are claimed and managed in construction projects, including when payment is due, how to respond to payment notices, and what to do if payments are late or disputed under the Construction Act and related contract terms. A solicitor in this field drafts and reviews payment clauses, serves and responds to payment notices, and leads or defends adjudication claims to recover money owed or defend against unfair deductions. The work is shaped by project contracts, timing, and the need to preserve cash flow and project viability.
In practice, solicitors handle drafting and policing payment provisions (notices, certification, and pay-when-paid clauses), pursuing or defending adjudication on payment disputes, addressing retention and final accounts, and coordinating with surveyors, main or subcontractors, and contract administrators. They interpret contract terms, determine breach and liability, and navigate enforcement of adjudicator decisions, with attention to the timing rules and the potential for interim relief or suspension where necessary.
