Expert Litigation + Dispute Lawyers
BUILDER NOT PAYING?
At Tusk Lawyers, we assist subcontractors and suppliers in recovering unpaid invoices from builders.
Whether you're facing delayed payments, disputes over work completed, or outright refusal to pay, we provide strategic legal solutions to enforce your rights.
Our team can negotiate payment, issue demands, and take legal action to secure what you're owed efficiently and effectively.
WITHHELD PAYMENTS DUE TO DEFECTS
It is common for clients or builders to withhold final payments by raising claims of defective work, sometimes without proper evidence or after accepting the work for weeks.
We help you respond quickly, assess whether the claims have legal merit, and protect your right to be paid.
PROGRESS CLAIM DISPUTES
Getting paid on time is essential to keeping your business running. We act in matters involving delayed progress payments, disputed claims, and underpayment for completed works.
We can issue letters of demand, commence legal proceedings or assist with adjudication where appropriate.
CLIENT NOT PAYING?
Tusk Lawyers helps builders and contractors recover unpaid invoices from clients, whether due to disputes, delays, or refusal to pay.
We provide strategic legal solutions, including demand letters, negotiation, and swift legal action, to secure the payment you’re owed. To help prevent future issues, we can also review and refine your terms of trade, ensuring they provide stronger protection and clearer payment terms to safeguard your business.
RESOLVING PAYMENT DISPUTES
We assist clients in recovering outstanding payments for completed works, materials supplied or services rendered. Whether the issue involves progress claims, variations, or withheld retention sums, we take swift action to secure payment or defend against unjustified claims.
INFLATED PAYMENT CLAIMS
Builders may issue progress claims or invoices that exceed the value of work completed. We review claims thoroughly, prepare payment schedules, and help you respond within statutory deadlines to avoid automatic liability.
CONSTRUCTION DEFECT CLAIMS
Tusk Lawyers provides expert legal support for construction defect claims, helping property owners, builders, and developers resolve issues like structural faults, water ingress, and non-compliance.
We work with industry experts to assess defects, negotiate resolutions, and pursue legal action when needed, ensuring the best possible outcome for our clients.
DISPUTES OVER VARIATIONS OR SCOPE OF WORKS
Arguments often arise when extra work is completed, but payment is refused because the client claims it was part of the original scope. We help clarify your contractual rights, gather supporting evidence, and pursue payment for valid variations.
Whether the issue is poor documentation or shifting expectations, we make sure your work is properly recognised and compensated.
DEFENCE AGAINST DEFECTIVE WORK ALLIGATIONS
Builders and subcontractors are often blamed for construction issues that may arise from design errors, scope changes or other trades' work.
We defend claims of defective work by reviewing the contract, engaging expert evidence where necessary, and guiding you through dispute resolution or tribunal hearings.
