Why Creagh Weightman Lawyers?

There is a reason that our building and construction project legal experts are considered exceptional, and it’s more than simply knowing the law or the number of building and construction disputes that are resolved. 

Our construction knowledge extends across various sectors, including residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. Whether you are a contractor, developer, subcontractor, or property owner, our construction law specialists are well-equipped to provide tailored legal advice and representation to safeguard your interests.

Education

It takes years to accumulate significant experience in dealing with construction law matters, from pre-contractual drafting and construction contract review to insurance issues, dispute resolution and litigation. In addition, building solicitors are required to obtain a licence to perform their work and services. Our building contract lawyers specialise in Australian Building Industry Contracts, which are designed to strengthen the collaboration between all parties involved in the project.
