    Frequently Asked Questions

    We understand that seeking legal representation can raise various questions. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions to help you.

    Construction Law

    What can I do if a contractor or employer refuses to pay?

    Non-payment disputes are one of the most common issues in the construction industry. Depending on the contract and circumstances, legal remedies may include issuing payment demands, adjudication, arbitration, court proceedings, or enforcing contractual rights such as suspension of works.

    Non-payment disputes are one of the most common issues in the construction industry. Depending on the contract and circumstances, legal remedies may include issuing payment demands, adjudication, arbitration, court proceedings, or enforcing contractual rights such as suspension of works.
    Can I cancel a construction contract if the other party breaches the agreement?
    Yes. In many cases, a material breach of contract may entitle the innocent party to cancel the agreement and claim damages. However, the cancellation process must be handled correctly to avoid further disputes.
    What is the difference between adjudication, arbitration, and court proceedings?
    Adjudication is usually a fast interim dispute resolution process commonly used in construction contracts. Arbitration is a private legal process where an arbitrator decides the dispute. Court proceedings take place in public courts and may take longer but can provide broader legal remedies.
    Can I claim damages for delays on a construction project?
    Potentially yes. Contractors, subcontractors, employers, and developers may all have claims arising from delays, depending on the terms of the contract and the cause of the delay.

    Insolvency Law

    What is the difference between liquidation and sequestration?

    Liquidation generally applies to companies and close corporations, while sequestration applies to individuals or trusts. Both processes involve dealing with insolvent estates under legal supervision.

    Can I recover money owed to me by an insolvent company?
    In many cases creditors may lodge claims against the insolvent estate. Certain transactions prior to insolvency may also be challenged or set aside depending on the circumstances.
    What happens if a company continues trading while insolvent?
    Trading in insolvent circumstances can expose directors or members to potential personal liability under certain circumstances. Early legal advice is critical where financial distress arises.

    Civil Litigation

    How long does civil litigation usually take?

    The duration depends on the complexity of the matter, the court involved, and whether the dispute settles or proceeds to trial. Some matters may resolve within months while others can take significantly longer.

    Can legal disputes be settled without going to court?
    Yes. Many disputes are resolved through negotiation, mediation, settlement discussions, or arbitration without proceeding to trial. Early legal intervention often improves the prospects of settlement.
    What should I bring to my first consultation with an attorney?
    Clients should bring all relevant agreements, correspondence, invoices, notices, photographs, and any documents relating to the dispute. A clear timeline of events is also extremely helpful.
