Common Construction & Contracting Disputes

• Project Abandonment or Delays
  Contractors receiving advance payments but failing to perform the work, or significantly delaying the project schedule, causing financial damage.
• Defective or Substandard Work
  Using materials that do not meet specifications or delivering work that fails to meet engineering standards, leading to post-handover damages.
• Non-Payment by Project Owners
  Contractors completing milestones but owners dodging payments, wrongfully withholding retention money, or refusing to pay without valid reasons.
• Variation Orders (VO) Disputes
  Ordering modifications or additional work outside the main contract without clear written agreements on new pricing and time extensions.
• Accidents and Third-Party Liabilities
  Damages caused by construction activities to neighboring properties or accidents involving workers on the construction site.
