Construction and Infrastructure partners, David Nitek and Tim Healey, professional support lawyer, Becky Johnson and associate Stephanie Lam have authored an expert analysis chapter in the latest edition of The International Comparative Legal Guide - Construction & Engineering Law 2024.

Their chapter "navigating termination in construction contracts" considers the approach taken to terminating a contractor’s employment in the principal standard forms of construction contract, and key issues that the parties may need to consider when drafting termination provisions.  It also reviews current trends in termination disputes and the legal and practical difficulties that can arise.

As with previous editions, this guide also provides insights into how different legal systems approach common issues encountered on construction and engineering projects, covering 20 jurisdictions in a Q&A style.
