Building contractor or property developer, the firm defends you!
Lexing’s expertise in serving builders (developers, contractors, etc.) is based on in-depth legal skills and practical experience.
The long-standing experience and specialization of the firm’s lawyers means they are familiar with the various players involved, the hesitations involved in putting together a real estate deal, and the technical reality of a building site. It is this knowledge that we put at your service.
After all, legal competence alone is not enough: technical expertise is essential to ensure that your case is handled properly.
First and foremost, handling cases requires a thorough understanding of construction techniques. In many cases, discussions focus on the existence or otherwise of faulty workmanship and compliance with the rules of the trade. In these circumstances, it is imperative that the legal counsel is familiar with the rules of execution.
The legal aspect is just as important, as many legal issues are specific to the sector:
- the sharing of responsibility between the project owner, architect, entrepreneur, engineering office, etc.
- defending clients against claims of bad workmanship or liability issues;
- drafting contracts for architectural work or for special techniques;
- real estate issues relating to property and co-ownership law;
- analysing the award and control of public and private tenders;
- insurance issues (professional liability, site liability, 10-year warranty);
- …
