Civil construction law
A new bathroom or kitchen, or an entirely new factory: these are all exciting new construction and renovation plans that you, as the client, always embark on with enthusiasm and optimism. The “paperwork” with the contractor is often forgotten. They come up with illegible terms and conditions or throw around terms such as UAV-2025 or UAV GC 2025. You agree to everything because you want to build, until... a dispute arises with the contractor.
You are a contractor and have been awarded a great contract. You start the construction project full of enthusiasm and optimism, until it turns out that the client cannot make the property you are working on available to you, or complains about defects in your construction after completion. Suddenly, you find yourself in a dispute with your client.
In both cases, Van Boven & Van der Bruggen Advocaten can guide you, advise you and, if necessary, assist you in proceedings, regardless of whether these are conducted in court or before the Arbitration Board for the Building Industry, or one of the countless other dispute resolution committees. Our firm has the experience and expertise to assist you in all areas of civil construction law – in short, the legal relationship between the client on the one hand and the contractor, installation company, architect, construction consultant, etc. on the other.
