Corporate Legal Advice for Construction Companies

Each business sector faces contractual and regulatory risks that should be identified before commitments are undertaken. Construction firms may run several sites, joint projects and subcontracting chains with performance guarantees.

What to keep in mind

Review works contracts, certification and payment schedules, advance payments, insurance, project vehicles and internal authority for guarantees.

Participation in a shared project does not necessarily make every participant liable on identical terms.

Distinctions often confused

A construction contract and the joint venture used to perform it are different legal relationships.

Frequently asked questions

Should a separate company be formed for each project?
That depends on investors, risks, costs and business needs.
Who is liable for a subcontractor's breach?
The main contract, governing law and third-party duties determine the answer.
