Our team provides expert legal advice to all different types of businesses, from start-ups and small businesses to large companies. We are proud to have developed enduring, committed relationships with our clients based on trust, professionalism, and exceptional commercial results.
Civil and Commercial Litigation
The civil and commercial litigation lawyers at Brander Smith McKnight Sydney CBD routinely resolve disputes in and out of court.
Although "litigation" refers to the legal resolution of disputes in court, in practice, many of these disputes are resolved outside of court through methods like interlocutory applications and other types of alternative dispute resolution. 90% of the civil litigation cases we handle are resolved without the need for a formal hearing.
Should your matter proceed to trial, BSM lawyers have a wide range of experience in Local, District, Federal and Supreme courts as well as tribunals and arbitrations. Our team of knowledgeable lawyers will tenaciously fight for you.
Building and Construction Law
We resolve over 85% of construction conflicts without the need for costly litigation. Our strategies let our clients stay in charge of the dispute resolution process. We are specialists at writing and reviewing all kinds of construction contracts, from contracts for residential construction to those for major infrastructure projects. We are industry experts with over 50 years of combined experience dealing with residential, commercial, and industrial construction legal advice and building disputes.
Our clients are builders, contractors, homeowners, engineers, property developers and body corporates. We have substantial experience in each stage of the building process, including pre-contract negotiations, drafting and review of construction contracts, negotiations and review of finance contracts, legal advice regarding construction claims and debt recovery and dispute resolution including adjudications and litigations in courts and tribunals.
Our team has worked on all kinds of projects, from small and medium-sized construction projects to infrastructure projects worth over $1 billion.
