The construction process breaks down into the following steps:

Contracts

Creating clear and thorough contracts is the foundation of any successful construction project. The law emphasizes the importance of well-written agreements that accurately describe the intentions and obligations of all parties involved in the contract.

Lien Law

This is a crucial mechanism for contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to receive payment for their services and materials.

Despite best efforts, disputes are not uncommon during construction projects. Dispute resolution mechanisms, including arbitration, mediation, and representation, are used to resolve conflicts efficiently.
