If
one takes into account all the legal relationships connected with it, building
law as a whole is comprised of regulations under both civil and public law.
Therefore, a distinction is frequently made between private building law (such
as, for example, contracts with architects, construction engineers, construction
companies, building contractors, workmen) and public building law (such as,
for instance, construction planning law, building code law).
Whilst in private building law a legally binding agreement between the client
and a service provider with regard to the rendering of work liable to costs
routinely features, public building law deals with whether land is suitable
for building on and compliance with design and safety regulations as well as
stipulation of the type and extent of use.
We advise you with regard to both the private and public sphere of building
law on such matters as:
applying for building permits
architect's law, architect's agreement
engineer's law
general work contract law
wage claims
drawing up building contracts
checking all types of contracts
construction planning law
building code law
warranty right for building defects
remedy of building defects
cross-border building contracts, engineers' or architects' contracts
consideration of EU regulations relating to building projects
problems with building acceptance
premature termination of building contracts
possibilities for protecting clients or contractors
model for solving disputes (arbitration, mediation)
consequences of illegal buildings/legalisation of building projects
If
one takes into account all the legal relationships connected with it, building
law as a whole is comprised of regulations under both civil and public law.
