The experts of our real estate and construction law team are at your disposal in all real estate and environmental legal matters, as well as in related contract, dispute and administrative processes. Contracts concerning construction and real estate, such as construction contracts, as well as disputes are our core areas of expertise.
Over the years, we have assisted hundreds of our principals in various construction and real estate contract projects regarding the implementation of projects and contracts as well as the sale of real estate and apartments. Our services also cover assistance in dispute situations concerning contracts, whether it is an individual interpretation of a contract term, a complaint process or a trial in a general court or arbitration.
We serve both construction companies, housing and real estate companies, and private individuals in a wide range of all contractual matters related to construction law in the various stages of the implementation of construction projects, including the zoning process, project planning, company establishment matters, contract and consulting contracts, housing and real estate transactions, and lease agreements.
We constantly advise our customers in practical matters concerning various contract and consulting contracts, in the preparation of deeds of sale for real estate and housing shares, in the preparation of joint arrangement agreements, management sharing agreements, lease agreements, land use or development agreements, and in broader real estate arrangements.
The general terms and conditions most typically applied in construction contracts, i.e. the general terms and conditions of the construction industry YSE 1998, the general terms and conditions of consulting activities KSE 2013 and the general terms and conditions of procurement and delivery of construction products RYHT 2000, are tools we are familiar with with their associated problems and risks of interpretation. We effectively assist our principals in the use of these terms when negotiating contracts.
By using a contract law expert already in the contract preparation phase, many problematic situations can be avoided. The same also applies to various complaint situations. Although, for example, the YSE 1998 terms and conditions are very commonly used, even their key terms may not be known well enough. Investing in expert services in time can save significant costs.
We know from experience that construction disputes and lawsuits cannot always be avoided, but the risks associated with problem situations can still be managed and minimized. The litigation expertise of our experts and the resources of our office ensure the best possible outcome for our clients, even in those construction and contractor disputes where an amicable negotiation solution cannot be reached.
We represent our principals in all construction-related dispute processes, including arbitration and conciliation processes. Similarly, our services include assistance in real estate disputes and environmental legal matters. In real estate disputes, we serve both companies and individuals. With the experience of hundreds of processes, we know that a thin agreement is often better than a fat dispute.
The most important thing is to find a partner to support your decision-making, who can offer a realistic assessment based on experience and a recommendation to solve the situation in a commercially reasonable way. The decision to commit to an expensive and risky arbitration or court process always requires special expertise, experience and insight into the chances of the case succeeding.
In addition to the practical handling of contracts and disputes in the construction and real estate industry, we also constantly organize various trainings in the field. For example, our Construction Contracts in Practice training has been implemented more than 20 times over the course of ten years, and it offers an excellent way to acquire the basics of contract practices in the field and especially the YSE 1998 terms and conditions. Similarly, our second training, YSE, RYHT and KSE - responsibilities, in the contract chains of the construction project , helps to outline the mutual responsibility relationships of the construction project in the contract network between different actors during the implementation of the construction project.
Contact our experts when you need the help of real estate and construction law professionals - and also ask us about construction legal training tailored to your company's own team.
