Lewis O’Brien & Associates has been assisting clients with building contracts for more than 20 years.
Our goal is to see that potential issues are aired and resolved in advance, ensuring that the building work can proceed without unnecessary disruption and that the project is more likely to be completed on time and on budget. We call this ‘preventative law’.
Some of the key ideas are summarised in the short video below.
As a developer, it is important to be aware that the standard Victorian domestic building contracts are prepared by the builders associations – and don’t protect the interests of developers / property owners as well as they could. As a result when the project goes off the rails it seems that the builder holds all the cards.
Lewis O’Brien & Associates offers a fixed price building contract review which includes a formal written review of the proposed contract, suggested special conditions to address key weaknesses from an owner / developer perspective and a follow up phone call.
Before you sign a six or seven figure building contract contact us to arrange a review. It is one of the best investments in your project that you can make!
