Constructive Counsel Series: Construction Law Explained: Practical Lessons on Contracts, Claims, Delays & Disputes

Construction projects are built on contracts. Yet most professionals only read the contract after something has gone wrong. Constructive Counsel is here to change that. Written for lawyers, engineers, contract managers, claims professionals, and project leaders, this book explains the legal concepts, commercial realities, and practical decisions that shape construction projects. It shows you how to recognise risk early, understand why disputes arise, and make better decisions long before anyone starts talking about arbitration. Covering the full lifecycle of a construction contract, each chapter goes beyond the black letter law to explain how issues unfold on real projects, what evidence matters when things go wrong, and what experienced teams do differently to stay out of trouble.
